Dischord Goes Digital

Ian Mackaye and the boys over at Dischord Records have launched a DRM-free digital music store, which offers most of their catalog in 320 Kbps MP3 format. The store has nearly everything that comes to mind, including releases from the label's Dischord, Northern Liberties, Peterbilt, and Fugazi Live Series categories, with more rare and possibly unreleased material to come.

Along with digital downloads, the site continues to offer releases on LP, CD, and DVD. Everything is extremely affordable, with standard CDs and LPs going for about $10 and downloads going for a mere $7. The best part of it? Every 12-inch vinyl purchase comes with a free digital download of the album so you can listen to it before the record gets shipped to your house.

Now, excuse me while I purchase me some Red Medicine.
