this raises a some interesting questions..
you've got to look at the people that are actually have going to have listened to this.. maybe what 1000 people? because for me, with this product, that is more important in terms of marketing and sales than pricing options and packaging, it comes down to your position in the market as i have said before, but i don't necessarily think you should try to change this position because a) the selection of music is purposefully abstract b) i don't have any ideas for how you could reposition yourself without compromising on other things. (eg, selling mp3s would be a compromise on your initial intentions)
most of the dnb people who will have actually listened will have their own agenda, most of them trying to sell for themselves (a wider problem in dnb at the moment?). if you have got maybe 100 people from other/non dnb forums you have advertised on to listen to it (little detroit, some others?), lots of them people will probably have lost interest or have little interest in drum and bass years ago so they might instantly dismiss it. none of the music on offer here is part of of a new movement eg. no dubstep. that shouldn't matter in an ideal world because it doesn't effect the end product coming out of the headphones, but hey..
as for the tunes, i can appreciate most of them (that goes for all of the volumes so far), imo - the macc tunes are jazzy drum and bass at its finest, the nubian minds/blue tunes are on another level, the formication tunes fit in well with a lot of the music i have been listening to recently.
i don't buy much vinyl at the moment because i'm totally skint, if i had a job i could probably buy my entire vinyl collection in a couple of months. but i'm going to buy it eventually because i like with what you are attempting to do here on sc and i like the music.
vote - i'm going to buy it, stfu already
