Check out a list of Downloads here for Indie labels.
Several independent film, DVD distributors have lost their stock – in many cases, all of their held stock – in a fire caused by the rioters in London. So how can you help ?
It may not, in all cases, be enough but do what you can. Many of the films available from these distributors can be purchased not only as hard copies, but as downloads.
Below are links by which you can visit the iTunes store or other online stores and buy films from these distributors. If enough copies of enough films get purchased, it will make a real impact on the distributors’ chances of comeback from the arson attack.
Treating yourself to a movie or two could play an important part in keeping these companies ticking over. There’s more than enough film lovers out there in the UK to get this done, I’m sure.
The following list will be updated.

Exposure Cinema

Eureka and Masters of Cinema
Eureka don’t have many titles for purchase via download, but would like you to know there’s stock at Amazon, and you can support them by buying there. New copies of some of their top titles are on way to their trade partners soon, and none of their August releases – Schloss Vogelod, Colossal Youth or Strigoi - were affected.
