I agree. While the larger distributers have an upper hand over everyone else when it comes to supplying vinyl, we smaller labels need a means to supply new music on vinyl as well. If there is a growing market for digital format(which there obviously is) then we should take advantage of it. One hand can actually help the other. Vinyl will always be here just as digital.

so to what extent is soulseek having an influence (for better or worse) on the move from distribution of underground music on vinyl to distribution of the music via other means (ie. mp3)?

oh yeah before any kind of flaming goes on i love vinyl too but if artists make no money then maybe other means need investigating?
