Music Download Sites: Let Us Subscribe to Labels
While eMusic is still by far my favorite download site for MP3’s, it seems that they and other sites are missing an opportunity.
Most of my favorite styles of music are clustered around a couple of dozen independent labels. It would be nice for me, and potentially profitable for them, to allow me to subscribe via RSS to a feed of new releases from each of these labels. The feed can either be per label or can be aggregated from a set of labels I choose on their site. Ideally, it would also be available when I log on via their home page.
This way, when a new album from a favorite label is released and available for download, I am aware of it immediately, rather than some weeks or months later when I happen to stumble across it.
