how this works, from here: instructions on how to buy music from this blog

this site is intended to slowly come up in parallel to my bandcamp archive, for the intent of eventually replacing it, if the new owners of the site produce an epic fail in how to administer it. the functionality here is much less than it will be at bandcamp, so if you want a proprietary apple format or something, you'll have to go there, instead. for that reason, i don't exactly intend to close my bandcamp page down, i just want something ready to go. but, if you know how bandcamp works, this should be familiar to you, even if you'll have to adjust to the lack of automation.

after much thought, i've decided i only want to sell the items in flac. i was considering also selling in mp3, but, on second thought, i don't want to do that. only glorious, lossless flac files will be sold here.

there will be paypal buttons on each page, and that paypal button will send money directly to my paypal account, without any kind of store hosting intermediate. you may also donate via the links on either side of the page.

the way this will work from there is that paypal will send me an email telling me what you've bought. now, i am not a robot (yet. a girl can have aspirations, right?), and i don't have the automated backend that bandcamp provides available to me, so you'll have to wait for me to get the email. once i get the email - you can expect that within 24 hours in almost all scenarios - i will upload the files to a google drive share and send you a link to that google drive share that belongs solely to you. you can then download the flacs from there.

you will not add the item to a library, and the amount of time the share lasts for will be variable. i am only going to create one google account for this purpose, so the space will need to recycle. i will give you warning before i delete it, and i will send you the files a second time should you lose them in a hard drive crash, but not a third time. the idea is that you're supposed to download the files and take them away and end the transaction there. surely, you have your own cloud space, and you can leave it there, if you'd prefer. you could probably even stream it from there, if you insist, although i don't see the attraction of streaming music, myself. 

i don't know if i get your email address or not, but, if i do, i will add it to a list. i will then send you an email every time i release something new. you can ask me not to do that and i won't.

there are no special mobile view settings, and anything on top of the blogspot back-end will be coded with html5, not javascript.

so, as mentioned, if you understand bandcamp, this process should be familiar to you, so long as you realize that i am a human being and not an automated process, for now, at least, descartes be damned.
