Most of the article is unrelated to music but Bandcamp being sold to Songtradr is big news

There's a Walmart Taylor Swift vinyl record and a French symphonic post punk with Mongolian throat singing vinyl record that's sold via Bandcamp.

I'm a member of a group niche genre collectors and there's way less activity compared to a year ago. I also get the impression that labels overestimated continued interest after every pressing plants was booked months in advance. There's plenty of stock on new releases which was unheard of just recently. New releases are getting less frequent now too.
