To be honest, any label which is releasing on vinyl and ignoring digital distribution is shooting itself in the foot.Originally Posted by The Divide
It's not like it incurrs massive overheads, and I don't think that offering your tune digitally is going to kill your revenue.
If you release solely on vinyl you're limiting yourself to...
1. The serious DJ market - who may need the vinyl.
2. Vinyl enthusiasts - who just love the vinyl.
Neither of which, I think, is going to massively suffer if you offer the digital download option.
The casual listener might fork out £1 for an mp3 if they really love a tune, but no way are they paying £6.50 for a vinyl.
Question for anyone running a label:
How much money do you get per vinyl?
How much money do you get per mp3 download?
I'm quite interested.
