Okay, so you haven’t rushed out to buy Motherlode yet. I’m hurt, but I’ll get over it.
But it’s New Music Tuesday at the iTunes Music Store, and you’ve got another opportunity to show me that you care–by picking up a song (or twenty) from Motherlode.
What are you waiting for? Go, buy!
By which means of purchase does the artist make the most profit?
The very best way to make the most money for the artist is to buy a CD directly from him/her. The next best thing is to buy a CD in a store; the worst in terms of money is iTunes, which only nets a couple of cents per song. That said, iTunes is a great way to snag new listeners, who might not buy a CD from an artist they’ve never heard.
