Dear small bands: You don't want my money, do you? If you really, truly do: make it easy for me to give my money to you.
I was listening to SlayRadio, and they played a song by mind.in.a.box. I wanted to buy their R.E.T.R.O. album, but I'd like to get the MP3s only, not the physical CD. Checking their site, I can see where to get them.
Which is a big fat FAIL.
I heard on IRC that they're also on Spotify. Which is Yet Another Fail: Free only if you have invites. ...Now who I know who might have invites...?
Oh, oops. My urge to spend the money passed.
So, Sorry mind.in.a.box: No money for you, I got annoyed enough.
One place that Does Things Right is C64audio.com; You buy the CD, and get to download the MP3s immediately. Or buy the MP3s (or FLACs even!) only.

- Musicload.de - Fail on several levels: It's German only, for Germans (and Swiss and Austrians) only.
- iTunes? I don't have iTunes. Nor Mac, nor a "PC" as it says on the itunes site.
