Hello

Put an old LP I made 5 years ago (under my delightfully named "Spunkle" project) on Bandcamp. 

http://spunkle.bandcamp.com

Does anyone else use BC?  Any tips on best use of the options?  I am not charging anything but have currently got the "require email address if fan enters zero" option ticked. Not sure if this is a good thing or not, but bearing in mind that the label that this was on 5 years ago had "proper" distribution and didn't shift a great deal, I am not exactly reckoning on being deluged with admin work.  Would like to know if anyone does download/listen though.  I also have all the CD copies now in my possession so could offer to sell those through BC too, but I got confused about the VAT option.  Has anyone here ever sold physical stuff through BC?

There was a nice review at the time (albeit as a demo, although this meant I won half a day in a studio) here (at the back in the Demo section :)) http://nightshift.oxfordmusic.net/2008/oct.pdf

This was recorded to minidisc using the gear on this old video (with the addition of an Akai S20 sampler and an Amiga computer (as a sample player!): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7U1R5Fphl24

Naturally Frost*ie thoughts are most welcome too :D
