that's preposterous. i personally know people making a decent amount from them -- in fact a pretty impressive amount from them. and obviously mainstream labels are raking it in. we only made about $600 from them last year, which was disappointing, but consider that 40% was taken by our distirib/aggregater which we've now bypassed by going direct with outlets. and that our files were hastily made available without good mastering, and with little-to-no promo. and that we cancelled all our digital side in september to reconfigure/reset our startegy, just a couple months after our stuff finally went live on a few major sites. call me thrifty or call us small-fry, but to us that's a helpful, even if modest, chunka change.
