Bandcamp is waiving fees today in support of artists

I don't mind paying for my music but $18 to download one album is absurd. As much as I dislike Amazon I can download DRM free music for a lot cheaper.

I wish HDTracks hadn't gone entirely over to their "music downloader application." Bandcamp is far preferable to me in that they spit out a FLAC link at the conclusion of the transaction.

Well, HDTracks' target audience is middle-aged audiophiles and dadrock enthusiasts, so it's natural that their price point will be higher than on the indie end of the spectrum (aka Bandcamp). Also, there will be more middlemen chipping off their share when you buy from HDtracks.
