A subscription service is something I've often thought would be a good idea. For a set amount you'd get everything from a label.
Ninja Tune were started by Coldcut years ago. Recently they've been putting out stuff like The Bug and Actress so they've still got their finger on the pulse.
Here's a link and their blurb:-

Ninja Tune don't put out enough stuff I'm into for it to be worth it for me. However, I'd love it if a label I was totally into did this.
This is an ace idea. Profound Lore really need to do this! Wouldn't it be ace if a music magazine like The Wire did something like this. Terrorizer would make a killing if they did it and sold the readers two good metal albums a month with bonuses, comps and stuff. It'd be like those oldskool by-mail book clubs but for FLAC.
