FAQ

Store

How Does Your Store Work?
Add albums to your cart and click “Checkout”. This will direct you to PayPal to make the purchase with your PayPal account or credit card. Once the purchase is completed you’ll be re-directed to a download page with your albums. You’ll also receive an email with the download links.

Why Don’t You Sell CD’s?
We remember CDs. That was a really cool technology. Nostalgia. Actually, we find that CD Baby does a much better job at shipping CDs than we do. You can get most of our releases from them.

Don’t MP3s Have Bad Sound Quality?
Sure, but so do CDs. All digital audio loses a great deal of fidelity from the original source recordings, but our MP3s are professionally encoded and sound pretty ridiculously good. Unless you’re listening through a $1,000+ sound system in a tuned acoustic environment you’ll probably not hear a difference with our MP3s over CDs.

The Label

Will You Sign My Band?
Quick answer: Probably not. Longer answer: We’re not a record label as much as a collective of friends who pull our resources to help each other out. But feel free to send us an email if you want to talk about the music biz or show off your new stuff.

Again, Why Won’t You Sign My Band?
We’re not a record label. We’re just friends doing what we love doing. Plus, do you really want a label?

Can I Sign One Of Your Bands?
Perhaps. Email us at info@villageten.com.
