I have over 900 albums on my Bandcamp page to testify. However I still download music with a clear conscience if the band or label don't make their music readily available such as SANGRIA or BICEFALO, both Chilean Sludge/ Doom bands. I have contacted both the bands and Proyecto Sepulcro asking about availability. I was told by Proyecto to stop hassling them. I spend nearly as much money on music as I do on my mortgage each month, so I buy digitally to save on shipping costs, so if a band doesn't have the foresight to put their music on sites like Bandcamp and get their music to as many people as possible, then thats their problem. Another issue I have is the increasing use of bands using cassette format. I can't play cassettes any more. The bands COLTSBLOOD and CRYPT LURKER are examples. The cassettes were available to buy on their Bandcamp pages, but, even though the small amounts available are now sold out, for some reason the tracks aren't available to download. Why not, don't they want to sell any more? I've contacted both bands over the last few month to ask if the tracks will be available to buy, but to no avail. So, guess what, I've found a copy of the CRYPT LURKER album on a blog and downloaded it.<br /><br />So although you are correct in what you say, some aspects of the music industry don't help themselves.<br />Anointing The Sickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08205909470811536445noreply@blogger.com
