Platform Preview: Album Page + Checkout

— Austin Robey

Last month, we previewed the Artist Page. Today, we’re previewing Release Pages and Checkout. We also want to show you how your input has already improved the platform.

Response to Feedback

Thanks to your thoughtful comments on the Artist Page demo, we’ve made several improvements:

  • “Buy” has been changed to “Add to Cart”
  • Removed the price tag over the Release artwork and relocated price
  • Added release format
  • Increased tactility and responsiveness in the UI
  • Added functionality to see multiple Release Artwork images
  • Added functionality for free download releases and non-streamable releases
  • Built out a more robust List View
