From my point of view - getting offered money from someone who is not recording for money is a bit strange , perhaps you are just a generous or a wealthy person.

Several things here:
1 I don't like piracy, and think "the laborer is worthy of his hire", as the good book saith.
2 I am assuredly not wealthy. The "generous" business, well, I'll let others judge of that.
3 I did expect to and have indeed sold some disks, although the overall project was not commercially oriented.
4 Eight or nine cents times the projected number of disks would be less than $10 per song, which is not onerous.
