Maybe it's apples/oranges here, but it IS possible to do this well and it guts me that my favorite group can't seem to get it together.

yea - and check out GusGus's webpage...
http://gusgus.grapewire.net/
not only do they have clothes, but - they have an INCREDIBLE selection of downloads available, all in 320 kbps AAC
like - I'm not 100% positive, but I think you can literally download every single bside and remix of their tracks (even ones done by
other artists) and stuff that used to be seriously hard to find (like "This is Normal" as an instrumental album or their first album that was only released in Iceland. Back in the day - I spent waaaaaayyyy too much time trying to find that one -> I've only been able to listen to it since it came on their webshop)
