Everyone loves a good Criterion Collection or Shout Factory release. But what’s a good website from which to buy digital media? Do you buy digital media? Or do you just buy physical and rip? Or do you just sail the seas?

Games seem to be itch.io or Steam, maybe a Humble Bundle or Epic/GOG exclusive here and there. But what about movies and music? What about books and audiobooks?

    Came to say this. Also of note, digital purchases on Bamdcamp are downloadable as DRM-free, lossless FLAC files which is awesome.

      Yup! And to add to that further I can go back and download my purchases again, whenever I want in a different format if I wish.

      Beatport you have to petition their support team to “allow” you to download any of your purchases for a second time.

      Juno you buy it in one format, often paying more for a flac or a wav file.

      Fuck both of those latter business models.
