There is NO comparison. It is MUCH easier to sell 175 albums online than it is to sell 143 real CDs. If you like the personal approach, you can still tell people to go to iTunes during our set, and yo don't have to be an asshole going around afterwards during the other sets.

And it was impossible to get a contract. Impossible. now merit and marketing are the rules.
