Winnipeg based G7 Welcoming Committee Records has gone totally digital. They launched a digital download store and decided to sell 50 limited edition 10th anniversary commemorative box sets (consisting of 54 CDs) for $100. They sold out of these monsterous sets (the entire 44 catalog titles + 10 “Take Penacilin Now” compilations) somewhere between the time I read the e-mail, filed it and then decided to post it here.
