What to do with reissues?

[Col Wolfe]

We can licence the CD format OK but who wants them?  Hard format fans generally opt for vinyl these days.

With no digital download option, I, for one, would much prefer CDs over vinyl. Ripping is quick and easy, they're smaller, and often cheaper. With vinyl you need relatively expensive equipment – a proper turntable and cartridge – just to get the content off the medium.

We did some basic market research and only 12% of our regular customer base are interested in CDs.  41% were interested in downloads (and 30% wanted a download code free with a vinyl purchase).

It's good to hear that so many people want downloads.

I’ve paid for bandcamp FLAC downloads.  I love the Whosampled comps, particularly the Boosey ones.

Bandcamp is the best, in my opinion. Proper quality (except for the fake lossless bootlegs) and available everywhere.
