Personally, buying EmanRush CDs and then encoding them into MP3 format has been a lot of work for myself, and the CDs just take up unnecessary space at home :-)

Are there any plans to provide the material in MP3 format - maybe an iTunes-like store for Islamic lectures? Advantages:

1) Audio can be downloaded by customers immediately instead of having to wait for CDs to be shipped and received through the mail.

2) The costs to produce and ship CDs go away. By saving this cost, EmanRush can not only increase margins, but also potentially pass on some of this savings to the customer and provide audio at a slightly lower price. Everybody benefits from the cost savings, and by manufacturing less material, this is also better for the environment.

I am not suggesting that the CDs no longer be sold. Rather, I am suggesting that MP3 audio also be made available for download.

insha'Allah one day we wont have any CDs...kind of like tapes arent sold anymore

I second that request. It would also help reduce in piroting of EmanRush audios inshaAllah.
