^ I didn't post about this because AlSonic had already mentioned it (see above). But it's all good, dude - sweet pic.

Funny thing was I got two emails from Bandcamp, each with a different link: one is the one you posted and the other leads straight to the epic NOT Lee Ranaldo page:

Just out of curiosity, is it common for the mp3 to cost more than a (double!) CD these days? And for mp3 and flac to be the same price?

I wonder if they ever fixed the error with the original pressing - "Six (4th take)" was missing nearly a minute on the CD, but is complete on the vinyl.

No, that's bonkers and stupid. Now, if we're talking high resolution lossless files, online stores like HDtracks sometimes charge more than the cost of the CD version on, say, Amazon. But on the other hand there's Bandcamp, where you get a neat-o physical/download/stream combo without even asking for it.

Usually FLAC/WAVs cost a bit more than mp3s - the reason in the beginning was that a bigger slice of the store's bandwith was needed to deliver big files to the buyer. That doesn't really hold now; again, on Bandcamp you get all the formats you want and even those you don't want. Bandcamp rules!

What?! That's fucked up! I don't think the CD version has changed over the years...
