Amir buys an LP....

[amirm]

Amir-I was thinking about your dilemma. Does that qualify me for a free lunch too?

I am in good mood, having been showered by kind offers. So sure, happy to buy you lunch too if you happen to be in Seattle area .

Amir..... while it's always fun to visit Bruce's studio and lunch with you guys, you know that many of these small bands sell their music in any format you want off Bandcamp right? Some of them post their 24/96 studio masters as well.... and sold at the same price as mp3s.

I like buying music off Bandcamp also because the artists earn a lot more than off iTunes or Amazon (Bandcamp takes 15% of revenue)..... and I like supporting musicians.

Here's the link to the band's page: https://ohdaughter.bandcamp.com/

I had no idea that site existed Gary! Thanks for the referral. Prices are in british pound. Are they all that way or it depends on where the artist is?

I'm sure it's in whatever currency the artist wants. I've paid in USD, EUR. This is the first I have paid in Stg pounds. I previewed the travks, my wife liked the music and I clicked buy.

Bandcamp is great because they often allow you to listen to the whole track before you buy.

I bought it and it billed my paypal account. And yes, it let me fully preview the songs. Nice! I usually have to go to Youtube to do that. Thanks again Gary.

I haven't looked to see if they have the LP that I bought. If yes, you would be right and I would be hanging the LP on the wall.
