I’ve checked my account and of the few hundered tracks i’ve purchased I only have the option to redownload 3. Not good.
SM001 defo learn from my mistake. If you do buy from them, make sure you duplicate onto another drive, incase one breaks. Thankfully it was only 6 months worth I hadn’t backed up. Everything before that I had.
Hmm.
Have never had a problem redownloading. Might have had to email (juno??), but never been an issue.
Obviously there’s different circumstances, but the backup advice is more than wise 👍
I do it monthly. Easy to remember when you do it on or around the first of month. With buying everything I can as lossless my music laptop is always full anyway, so need to make space.
Bandcamp is the way forward with its files all the same price, however some artists can sometimes remove a track at times….not often but overall it’s a better interface and better standard of music files.
Not the same price. Artists can name it. The Zeta Reticula-track on my new mix was 5 €. And only available in BC on digital.
So… half my preorders e.g. Glowal EP that should have been available today and received emails saying they were available have not appeared in the downloads section. Suggest cross-checking any preorders you’ve made with what appears in the folder as you may be missing out on quite a bit of stuff.
You can’t trust Beatport with the exclusives anymore. They might say a track is available from there only for a week or two, but I’ve checked and half can be bought from Bandcamp too without waiting. For example the new Rumors and Permanent Vacation-releases today.
I dont know why but I always got the feeling that Beatport was run by choads like Matt Gaetz, coked up to the eyeballs backstage at Coachella and telling anyone who’ll listen how great the latest Endo mix is. Basically clueless parasitic wankers out for one thing only, bags of cash.
LT42 Well, it was owned by Hawtin originally, so not too far wide of the mark.
The website has gone to shit. I can’t trust it anymore.
SM001 Why I don’t stay logged in on BP despite telling their site that I would like to remain logged in (Safari MacBook Air) is mystifying.
segwin been the same for me for years.
I’ll say now that UKeySoft is quite the Software tool. Still buy a bulk of my tracks from BP & BC if their is a goal of keeping them in my RecordBox for longer than a year.
Amps TIL.
Amps I’d no qualms with Beatport 10 years ago if I’m honest but look what it has become.

Amps Today I Learned. A Reddit-thing.
LT42 The last few years I would guess they have changed some of their programmers or support team or something. The site is just buggy as fuck, and their search function is even worse than ours. I don’t have too much beef with their ‘exclusives’ and the like, pricing could be a bit better, but otherwise they just need to concentrate on the site a bit more. I assume that BeatportDJ thing took up a lot of their time and effort recently.
Homegrove Gotcha. I believe he made Scrooge McDuck money from selling his majority stake.
Any codes knocking about?
