trust, and fair payments
If what we hear is true, and I believe it is, any payment would be better!! And where is the trust if distributors and labels remain unpaid? -
It was a golden era of downloading whose like we shall not see again in all likelihood.
Yes BDB - I totally agree, sadly. I've got enough to keep me going for many years, although it is good to keep up with new music to… -
Yes, Lowlife, that is often a good source - the best near us is an Oxfam Bookshop at Olney, about 20 miles away. Following the latest round of HMV cuts our nearest store is now Milton Keynes, about 25 miles away. I have to go to London to go to an i…

@Doofy - I wish we still had a local record store like that, in fact, I wish we still had a local record store! Sadly for me it is called Amazon now if I want to buy a CD.

Earlier I played the SFJazz Collective Miles Davis album in the car. Now back home playing

Once again, eythian, thank you for doing all you do to keep us running

Currently listening to Benny Goodman's King Porter Stomp from a History of Jazz playlist on Spotify - thanks Doofy. I'll continue with the playlist for a while

Thank you Doofy. I checked his website but couldn't find anything. It is a logical thing to do with a book like this.

Released today and I love it! Four tracks, total length 25 minutes. A combination of West Africa Afrobeat and South London Jazz. A week ago I would have downloaded from eMu… -
feels like breaking up with an old friend.
It is, and it is hard. I've tried and never fully succeeded, but the reasons to return diminish over time. Unless things change drastically I can see less reasons why my latest… -

I've been on the eMusic download trail whilst this is still available -
ACT is still there, no new releases after last August, though. My advice would be to get anything from them while you can!!
Update - I've been taking my own advice, I've been through the ACT catalogue and downloaded 6 albums including thr… -
Going to eMusic now is like searching through sale albums in the old days weeks after everyone else has been through them. You have to look long and hard to find anything you really want. Ditto BDB - I've got plenty that I have not really played tha…

Well, I think that it is almost the end for me. I've been on hold several times over the years. I even left last year for 7 or 8 months before returning. I'll probably go on hold again, but many of the labels that have sustained me over the last few…

It continues. Brownswood, a leading UK jazz/hip-hop label, has gone. Also I noticed Doxy releases, mainly, it appears to me, bootleg albums, have gone. You notice that as soon as you go to Popular in last Month in Jazz section. They had been amongst…
