Probably not the ideal place to ask but I plan to archive (hoard) them so I thought I would ask here. I want to buy the FLAC files for a specific artists music but I haven’t been able to find the right place to buy them. I checked bandcamp and they only have the FLACs for their music up to 2017. I planned to buy the CD and rip the FLACs off of them but they don’t sell CD for most of their albums any more. Any other places I can find them?
I’ve used 7digital and hdtracks.
Word of caution on 7digital; I’ve found that sometimes they’ll lose the licence for the files so my downloads will no longer be accessible. Always download immediately and backup.
Also found one file on a NIN album corrupt.
I actually did have that happen, thanks for pointing that out. I had a hard time finding an album and wanted to just redownload it when I found out about the licensing. I eventually found it in the completely buried wrong spot but it definitely made me mad at first.
I still think they are good to find stuff but take into account to download it immediately.
