I believe you but visiting their site I see option to purchase and not a single word as to what you get. CD, download, Vinyl?
It made me grimace when I reached the checkout :^).

Sharp-Nine Records - My New Favorite Jazz Label
Just thought I’d pass along a record label recommendation.
One of the Hi-Fi rag-mags last month had a review of an album called Grant Stewart Plays the Music of Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn on the Sharp-Nine label. The reviewer gave it five-stars for both music and sound so I checked it out. That is indeed an excellent quartet album. I checked out a couple of their other discs and have found that they’re production values are uniformly excellent – haven’t heard a bad sounding track yet.
As for the music: If you like straight-ahead jazz (and I do) this label has some fine choices. Anthony Wonsey’s “The Thang” is terrific, featuring Eric Alexander on a few tracks, and Planet Jazz “In Orbit” is just a perfectly played septet date.
If you’re into this stuff you can’t go wrong here. They have a pretty good web-site with samples too.
