I have bought maybe 10 or so records over the years without having a record player. It supports the band more than streaming. It is a relatively cheap physical souvenir and is a better display piece than a cd. And they usually come with a download code for the same music. Actually listening to the vinyl wasn't even much of a consideration when making the purchases.
- devindotcom 4y agothis is me - most shows I buy a shirt and/or a record. got the DL code... play it in winamp. I have had a turntable or two but not right now - but when I do, I'll have a great collection of records to listen to. Everybody wins!
- ramraj07 4y agoWhy not just give them money though.
- slg 4y agoI generally haven't seen an avenue to do that. Bandcamp has the pay what you want option, but I'm not aware of a donating option. I also listed multiple reasons for buying vinyl and supporting the artist is only one of them.
