FILE FORMATS:

You can choose between 3 different digital download options, all of which are DRM-free, meaning they have no locks or encryption on them, and you can use them on any device that plays MP3s. You can choose to download just MP3s, or either MP3s plus FLAC, or MP3s plus Apple Lossless format. FLAC and Apple Lossless formats are simply CD quality files. There is no extra cost to download these CD quality formats. Here is the breakdown of digital formats:

* High Quality MP3 Files (320Kbps, fully tagged, will play on any MP3 player)
* FLAC Lossless (CD quality - will not play in iTunes without being converted)
* Apple Lossless (CD quality - will play in iTunes)
* All files are 100% DRM free

Please note: the FLAC format is for experienced users and requires additional software. Learn more about FLAC and lossless audio here: http://flac.sourceforge.net

PACKAGE RATES and COSTS:

How is the pricing determined? All costs associated with the new record came out of our pocket, including recording costs and the production of the vinyl and CDs. We chose not to deal with a label since, these days, we have the tools to distribute our music by ourselves. This means that we don't have to worry about getting ripped off, getting dropped for not pushing units, or being pressured to work and behave in certain ways. We feel the costs of each package is fair and hope that you do too. We do have costs to recoup, so please buy our vinyl! Trust us, it's some dope shit.


DONATIONS:

We wanted to give people the option of choosing an organization to give a dollar to from each sale. The dollar is included in the price of the package, so this is NOT adding a dollar onto the sale. You can also opt out - you don't have to make a donation if you don't want to.

We chose organizations that do really good work, from media to the environment, from political prisoner support to anti-war organizing. Each organization has been established in communities all over the world and have proven themselves effective. You'll also notice, if you have read this far, that you can choose to donate a dollar to yourself, and get a dollar off the sale of a package. But this means we are asking you to do something cool, whatever that is in your eyes. Here is the list of orgs:

Indymedia Network
Climate Ground Zero
Iraq Veterans Against the War
The Ruckus Society
Anarchist Black Cross Federation - Political Prisoner support
Yourself!

TOPSPIN MEDIA:

Topspin is a technology that allows artists to deal directly with "fans" and supporters. This means we have the capability of going direct to you with our music, and we don't have to deal with a label or a near monopoly on the distribution of digital music. All digital sales on this site are handled by Topspin and are safely encrypted, and absolutely NO PERSONAL information will be shared with any outside marketing company or government agency - in fact, this was a pre-requisite for us when dealing with any digital store provider. We trust them and want to make sure you are comfortable buying our music from our site. For more information, please visit Topspin Media.
