Bandcamp - thumbs up for user experience

[AmirBagachelles]

I have had nothing but EASY, positive experiences buying lossless music on this site -- Nels Cline, Brotzmann (Outspan!!!). More obscure and OOP FMP... just a few pay periods away! .

They have a  nice little mobile app for playing purchased music (and trying free tracks), No problem enjoying favorite long tail out stuff on an out app.

And I have no idea if Bandcamp represents better economics for artists, but let's hope so.

Saw this on their landing page:

Fans have paid artists $139 million using Bandcamp, and $4 million in the last 30 days alone.

A $50MM annual gross ain't peanuts. Hopefully that monthly figure gains steam.

I use it too, mainly for things that I can't seem to find elsewhere.

I am a regular bandcamp user/listener. I have bought some great music from that website.

I'd never heard of this before. Thanks for the heads up!

I've dl quite a bit from Bandcamp - never more than mp3s. Always been happy.

Just tried out Bandcamp to purchase "L'Atelier Tampon Ramier, September 2007 (Sans Bruit).  Worked pretty easily.
