What I meant was that here are 30 tracks being given away when the rest of the record inustry are trying to discourage people downloading for nothing.

With the samplers you did have to buy the magazine! This seems to be entirely free.

But I agree no t a huge amont of difference.

yeah, some good stuff there.

not sure I agree that it flies in the face of conventional wisdom though - it's no different to giving a way a 'free record label sampler' CD, which record labels have done for years. Except without the costs of having to even press up a CD.

Thanks for the link, Dave - just had a listen and there's some good stuff there.

I am surprised no-one has posted this, if they have sorry.

Navigator/Reveal records are giving away a whole rake of quality music away here.

This flies in the sense of record industry wisdom but makes commercial sense to me. I think Navigator/Reveal should be congratulated.
