I think the editing of the text/transcripts is a huge thing. For my first link I picked a very interesting interview for the substance of the interviewee and also that it was not revised into a very interesting read. The second is very easy to read, flows easily, and is interesting, (mostly, because it's Clint Eastwood.) Being able to form that basic interview transcript into a Rolling Stone level interview is hard, but well worth the time and effort.

These finals pieces are just revised and edited writing formed into a story of some sort more than just a conversation. You can't write have this same story again, while you might be able to have the same conversation.
