Amazon has done for records what it did for CDs: added an AutoRip feature, so that whenever you buy records from Amazon, you’ll get the MP3s too, neatly deposited into your Amazon cloud account, from whence you can download it onto your thingy of choice. As if your local record dealer didn’t already have enough to worry about, this could be what finally sends him to the loony bin.
Plenty of records come with download codes for free MP3s, so that you don’t have to rip the records yourself, but Amazon’s move makes it, in one fell swoop, the best (i.e. most convenient) place to buy vinyl if you also want the convenience of digital files. No codes, no hassle.
You know why nobody else offers this? Because nobody else can.
