Bandcamp Upgrades To Physical Items
by GMM on November 16th 2009, at 05:57 CET

Bandcamp is my preferred digital download solution. I provide most of my music in mp3 and lossless format there, and I can experiment with different payment models, like the recent pay-what-you-want Nebular Spool.

Tonight they announced the option to also sell physical items, like CDs and vinyl, through the same system.

This is awesome. My current physical merch shop, powered by Yahoo, is ugly ass backwards. It works OK, but the store system in the background is cumbersome and it all looks terrible. The Bandcamp systems kind of runs easier with my current web look. Also I don't like having things spread out, right now I have three different physical and digital shop systems to keep tabs on and I think it's potentially confusing towards customers, with so many options.

I'm a bit swamped with the current Robot Army release and upcoming Ugress / Nebular Spool concert, but as soon as I have time I'll start moving things over.
