Like Quosh and now Evolution Records, should all Hardcore/HappyHardcore Labels offer their archived and new music online in some sort of digital format? The reason I ask this is because what about the people who just love listening to Hardcore that doesn't get put onto compilations? And the people who don't have turntables? I personally think that these people should be able to download the music directly from the label, even though there is the fear thast the music will be become "free at placeas like Kazaa.
What do the members of HHC.com think?

It would be a good idea to make an mp3 of the song available for download at a price not for free though.

Yeah, this is what Evolution and Quosh do. Quosh has like basically every song they have ever released avaliable for CD purchase. It's not downloadable, but at least it's digital. I hope that Raverbaby or Alphamagic itself allow people to download music in the future for like 2 euros or something a song. That would be cool for all the CDJs

I wouldnt pay for a mp3
paying 2-3pounds for a hardcore mp3 is silly, esp with for 1 more pound they could offer it on cd

yeah but if you payed a couple bucks for a few unmixed tunes on a cd it would probably be worth it...especially for people who don't like vinyl *cough* oli *cough* =P

yeah, like in the car, on a home stereo, there's so many more options. I like listening to full versions because of the intros and outros. 1-2 pounds sounds cool, and if labels like DFM, Raverbaby, and Essential Platinum do it, I'm in hardcore heaven. Right now I have my favorite Quosh tunes on CD and it's fun cause some of them never made it to compilations. The only way to get good songs on CD as of now is burning the vinyl onto your computer via a pre-amp, and let me tell you, it's nerve-racking. Mp3s can be converted to high-quality WAV files, so it's basically the same as buying a cd single anyway. CD singles! That would be equally good. Props to the boys over at Indiscriminate Records for offering the digital format.
