Thanks to Dodgy for giving us the plug, I welcome all comments good and bad.
Firstly I'd like to say YES our site uses flash to play the samples. This is because it was cheaper and easier to code the site in this way. To use a player like QuickTime/windows media etc costs a lot is buying the technology from the owners, getting licenses, paying subscriptions etc. This then allows us to keep setup and running costs to a minimum therefore allowing us to keep our product costs low, giving our customers better value.
So I'd like to ask the question....Would anyone prefer to pay more for their records and use a built-in player to listen to them first???
I admit the functionality isn’t the best on the market, but being the best isn't our intention. We just want to sell music at a reasonable price to people that want to buy it.... and yes there's a lot of old stock, some of which is my own collection, some of it has been bought in large bundles from many different people/places. I used to work at Tune Inn so yes, some is their old stock too.
There's still only 50% available on-line so far and there's much more to add. So if anyone is after a particular track feel free to ask, we may have a copy...... There will be new releases added once we have all the current stock available to buy and we are shifting stuff.
Again thanks for the comments!
