Also some labels would do a deal where if you buy an album through the usual retailers, the label takes a cut. But, they sell the albums to the artist at cost, and they can then sell them for full profit. So if you buy a CD through the artist's web site, they make a lot more than if you buy it through a retailer.
Considering Vinyl actually has a higher market share than CDs, I’m guessing the same rules would apply?
