Members philboking Posted August 28, 2017 Members Share Posted August 28, 2017 It can be lucrative for a very small minority, if you can get maybe 100 million people to stream it. If not, the only other possible reason would be to make it available worldwide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members philboking Posted August 30, 2017 Members Share Posted August 30, 2017 I think I paid $50 extra when I got my CDs printed to get distribution on Spotify, Pandora, and about 2 dozen other streaming sites. I consider it worth it because my album genre (blues) is far more popular overseas than in the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members philboking Posted August 31, 2017 Members Share Posted August 31, 2017 No worries mate. If it hadn't been spent there it would doubtless have been pissed away on some frivolous thing like bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members techristian Posted September 2, 2017 Members Share Posted September 2, 2017 No worries mate. If it hadn't been spent there it would doubtless have been pissed away on some frivolous thing like bills. So the bottom line is this. Did you AT LEAST get back your $50 in royalties ?

Members philboking Posted September 2, 2017 Members Share Posted September 2, 2017 Its a long game. The release date was May, so "not yet". And I probably will not make it back. I consider it a pretty low price for worldwide distribution though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rlspencer Posted September 4, 2017 Author Members Share Posted September 4, 2017 went and put some stuff on REVERBNATION and they keep offering me these "GREAT OPPORTUNITIES" yet every last one asks me for a credit card. PAY to PLAY is not something I'm willing to do. I'm aboot to dump the holy hail out of reverbripoffnation. Hey I got two whole fans on WHOOZL whoo hoo NOT.
