River Rat Records News
Digital Download Service
Wed, 22 Apr 2009
From the "better late than never" department; I'm really really happy to announce the arrival of our very own digital download service!
To date you've always been able to get our releases from your favourite third party service, be that iTunes or eMusic or wherever you prefer. These services are great at providing access to large libraries, but at quite a cost - the artist doesn't end up with much from the average sale on any third party service.
Buying MP3s from our site is really easy. It doesn't matter what software or device you use to play digital music, our files will work everywhere, and are encoded at extremely high quality (320kbps VBR).
Obviously, there is no DRM encryption or tracking or anything horrible like that. Once you've paid, these files are yours to keep, burn, eat, as much as you like.
I've also added an option to pay using PayPal, for those that don't have a credit card. At the moment, it's something of a manual process, but soon it'll be more automated. Generally we'd prefer you paid using your card, as this means the transaction is processed via a UK independent company rather than a huge corporation.. but who are we to dictate?
Time to catch some sun before I miss the day completely..
