I admit, I use to download a lot of music but now most of what I download are free mixtapes. The albums I do download, I actually buy them. It’s a sad fact that it’s easier and quicker to buy a cd then download the album then to buy it, open it, then rip it. And yes I know I can buy and dl albums online but two things I avoid like the plague are Apple and DRM.

Me too--which is why I like Amazon MP3. DRM-free with very reasonable licensing.

Apple has removed DRM from their tracks.

Amazon sells normal MP3 files.

3 of the last LPs I bought came with download codes for digital copies of the music

The fourth LP came with the music on a CD.
