Recently, some rare-ish (never before released on CD) 80's b-sides and extended versions from Prince were made available from 7digital (and
iTunes?) in Europe*. Fans are expressing some disappointment that these tracks are badly encoded vinyl rips complete with audible scratches, pops and surface noise.
Read here to see what one fan had to go through to get
some of his money back.
Hold on to those bootlegs. They won't be obsolete for a
long while.
*these may not be available in the U.S.
7 Digital sells DRM'd wma files, by the way.
