Users should also be aware that artists can remove their music from Bandcamp at any time for any reason with no warning. I found that out the hard way after a purchase was just mysteriously missing from my Bandcamp collection. I contacted BC support and that was the gist of their response.
Fortunately the missing item was just a single and I had already downloaded it in WAV format to burn to a CD. However, downloading from BC again would have saved me the trouble of converting and tagging that track.

I won't say who it was because they likely cleaned it from the internet to clean up their image. It was glorifying the confederate flag and stereotypical redneck culture, which I see as a hilarious meme "Billy's mom gave him a shotgun when he was 3 that's why we call him shotgun Bil-leeeeee" :D
