CDbaby is great. They take $4 for each CD I sell for 15 and I get orders from all over the world. Nothing is more exciting than hearing that some guy in Japan bought my music!
I was talking about weird spinoff sites that steal content and rip people off in my name. I can't stop them because the site owners don't even know who it is who is selling my songs as downloads. It isn't like I am famous, so it doesn't amount to any numbers, but I would hate someone who did want my music after seeing me to get ripped off. I met with a group of artists with some reps from BMI and they told us that we should be so lucky as to have people stealing our stuff in large numbers! I am still at the level of selling my own CDs at my shows as the main distribution. I am really happy to have it as another revenue stream. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "whynotnow7" <whynotnow7@...> wrote: > > That would be cool. btw, on cdbaby when you submit an album, you can limit > your distribution to just paid stuff.
