cut out the middle man. search for the zippyshare upload instead:nervous:
beatport can eat if they think im going to spend money with them. they provide no physical work, no upfront payment to the label, no packaging, no promotion, yet probably take over 50% of the sale. They get 50 pence/cents for doing nothing. i'd prefer to spend £15 to hear an artist play their tracks in a club environment and know the artist is getting their worth from their dj fee. the promoter gets his fee for the risk and hard work of organising the event, and the bouncers get their pay for looking after the door. I remember the days when you got something physical for your hard earned money. |

That's 3 free full L.S.G. albums if you don't have them :)
And just for the record, physical products > all. But there are some things that I want to have, but I don't love. Those are the things that I'll take on digital download for $1 instead of $20 for a vinyl or $15 for the cd single.
And w00t free from Amazon! |

Or better yet, why don't you just walk into a music store and take home a CD without paying for it? You'll get the packaging, and even a plastic wrapper. |

He's right, your the troll! I would gladly pay 15 dolla for a cover including plastic innersleeve and know i pay for the artist. Beatport is just providing crap quality aka 320krapbit/persecond. |

| These are classic tricks generated by behavioural consuming principles. The price is down to .99 (meaning to 1 rather than 1.50...the zero in the beginning is very tricky in itself since your brain gives more weight to earlier rather than later information leading to the assumption that there must be some huge decrease were there really isn't....) and because you compare the previous 1-something prices price to current 0-something, you think its a huge bargain making you to go buy lots and lots of tracks that you otherwise wouldn't buy and with much less quality control during the process, making beatport to gain a much higher amount of money than it normally should with the 1.50 prices. Bloody human psychology. |
