I don't think any of them need the money. Their reunions at the Atlantic 40th anniversary was done out of respect to Ahmet Ertegun. The London O2 show was for Ertegun's charity I believe. Plant has long been on record saying he can't do the LZ stuff the same way. I just don't think he wants to do it. He obviously likes to play some Zep stuff but he arranges it differently which would be totally against Page's wishes IMO. Cash doesn't motivate them - it sure didn't ABBA when they were offered over a billion to reform.

They are all great artists and together they're terrific, even with Jason. I'm still moved by the version of Stairway at the Kennedy Center - both the song itself and how obvious it affects Plant.

Plant doesn't want to get dragged back into the bullshite that goes along with being in Led Zeppelin. Page is known for heavy handedness and the tours turn into tense affairs with everyone having their own camp. Lots of infighting and people trying to curry favor by any means. Take all that into account and Plants loyalty to Bonham, and that's why you'll never see Zeppelin tour again.
