Well, maybe, but once again, I might point out I bought four records
this weekend. 3 of the records, I have MP3s of the albums I bought, and
have been searching for the record. The fourth is an artist I
discovered in part by checking out his MP3s.
I also discovered The Sea Cake through mp3s
Well you're one of the more serious ones, and many do buy, but the majority
don't. The whole culture of obtaining music has changed. Whether it's good
or bad... it's the reality. I know that I often get asked to burn things for
friends as they know I have bought the records, but I don't have a
hmmm..i think a hard part for me personally is
knowing the mark up price. When I go to buy a CD it
pains me because i know how much that cd cost to
produce and then i know how it all gets divided after
that. It's a big reason why I *really* try to buy
music from independently owned stores.

That's true - the mark-up on 400 records at that price would be about £14 -
take away £1 for postage and admin etc, they'd still make about £5000 for
selling through all copies, which they will undoubtedly do. Split between

12's sales decline rapidly (for about 20 different reasons), your record

i think that dance music would be the perfect money maker for itunes. as
dj'ing moves away from vinyl, even those who are ideologically predisposed
to pay loot for tracks will find it a time-suck to continually buy tracks
then transform them to mp3. at a buck a pop, who'd fight it?
lks
This business has to be from the heart
yes, agreed.
also agreed is Greg's point re making a living.
but what worries me is that the average pikey off the street can't release
his experimental music via vinyl very easily any more. I mean, finding
£800/£900 ain't easy when you earn barely enough
a little more then 1000 euro should be enough to put out 500 records
incl. promotion, promo postage etc
and when you sell everything there's 400 euro profit
that's life!

I was thinking along that lines too, but in this case apple and their itunes

World Wide Underground is the closest thing to a Moodymann album on a major,

I think there's a sense that DJs who have good records and labels to their
