Insound Launches

Insound.com, the leading online store for independent music, has launched a campaign called “Save The Album.” It is designed to allow customers to choose to buy CDs, LPs and now MP3s — but only as the entire album, and not as individual songs. Also, the MP3 format will allow the customers to easily move the music to any portable device they choose.

Artists involved in this campaign includes Devendra Banhart, The Decemberists, Bloc Party, The Mountain Goats, Pretty Girls Make Graves, The Walkmen and Lou Barlow, who all have recorded videos celebrating their favorite albums.

The videos can be seen at www.savethealbum.com.
