The other thing is someone who may want to use your music in whatever capacity, i.e. for films, etc. can get an immediate license for using their own hand-picked mix with immediate downloads once they pay for it. You can calculate an example of their fees. I did a simple one of one song for a film seen on the internet and distributed worldwide with a budget of under $1000. The sample licensing fee came out to $782.00. From what I've read each artist gets half of whatever CDs, licensing, etc. cost. The CDs are priced by the buyer, anywhere from $5 on up with the average being almost $9. |

I have the classical stream playing softly in the background and no one has complained - quite the opposite in fact. They play a lot of Elizabethan/Jacobean lute music which I lurve. Cheers JennieG |
