Submission + - Viral Music Distribution and Donation Downloads
Unknown_monkey writes: "A folk singer, a music producer, and a hot lip-syncer make a video parody. The video gets shared with a few friends, and then someone uploads it to youtube and BOOM! http://myboxinabox.typepad.com/ has the great parody video and the song and interviews with the artists. The amazing thing is that they are distributing the song and video free with an available donation box. And a limit of $2.00 on the donation. And people are paying it. Could this be a vision of future pop stars making songs and videos at home and then opening their own Pop-tunes store? People are paying $2.00 for a song that on Itunes would be a dollar. Does this provide further incentive for Itunes to raise prices?"
