The Party’s Over

Posted April 1st, 2007

Well, we’ve reached the end of the party. Thanks for coming everyone. Drive safely.

Before we wrap this up, I want to just tease my next post a bit. I’m preparing to share, specifically for Amie Street artists, the breakdown of profits through this site. I’m still a believer in the music store they have, but according to my math, you have to get to at least around 40 downloads before you see a cent. Basically, the price rises with each download and you have to take that first $5 and give it to Amie St. After that, you’re seeing $.70 on the dollar. It’s plainly explained on the site, but it’s not easy to see how much profit a song has made if your price is at $.85. I’ll explain all this in a coming post. I’m such a nerd…. Seriously. I have graphs.

UPDATE: Incidentally, I have no regrets with releasing my music this way over the weekend. It was a cool way to go and I think I distributed way more music than I would have any other way. All this to say, the trade-off in income was worth the exposure, IMO.
