i'm not sure if it's important if rather damian lazarus or amato is the bitch in this story, i think the most important message here is: support the physical product.

The most important message here is to understand & manage the business that you are responsible for, referring to Amato.

Understand the concept of stock & inventory control, cash flow management & how to control costs. Once you understand how to manage your business, particularly when times are not going well - e.g. reduced vinyl slaes, you will have more chance of survival.

For all the fans/punters/supporters, yes, support the product, in whatever medium is available & suits you - vinyl, digital, CD...Remember, not everyone is a DJ & buys vinyl...more & more DJ's are using digital / CD's as a means of mixing. Adapt, be proactive & move with the times. If you stand still in this industry, you are finished - its a one-way ticket to oblivion.

an artist cannot survive from downloads only

Moot point. Most artists can rarely survive off of their works even on the most popular mediums.
