Wired has a great piece about New York’s Other Music opening a digital music store.
WN: Why is Other Music launching a digital music store next month?
Madell: We are trying to stay current, and to continue our “mission” of spreading great music. I personally prefer vinyl to CDs and CDs to MP3s, but in the end I’m just glad people are listening to music, and the convenience factor of MP3s is undeniable. Our weekly e-mail update, where we review the week’s interesting new releases, has been one of the most popular aspects of the store. Our new site will be an extension of that, with recommendations and reviews of great music and a simple click-to-buy option.
I only got to spend about 20 minutes in there during my trip to New York, but it felt oh, so perfect.
