Dear Bandcamp,

I'm working on a project for a lable called Wholesomezine. We have a radio station that has a custom player. This custom audio player plays some songs that can be purchased through your store. We would like to be able to generate buy links for the artists that have their music available on your site. It would be nice if you had an api so I wouldn't have to make a thing to scrape the front end for artist search results, then find the corresponding album so I can find it's proper store page automaticaly. You know like your search, discography, and info api end points. But you won't give out new api keys. It's too bad since people could do great things with your api. You could have custom audio players based on your backend or making a bandcamp xbmc/plex plugin, but alas you wont give out an api key.

On a side note, thank you for id3 tagging the mp3 files for streaming over the web. It makes it much easier for the people who steal files off your site.

It is truly a shame,

-Aaron Kolker
