With Weed, musicians always get to set the price of the song (usually about a dollar, of course) and get 50% from every sale. Weed publishers Shared Media Licensing, Inc gets just 15%. 35% goes to the people buying then sharing the music. (20%, 10%, then 5% commissions) And sites like ShareNewYork.com make it very easy to buy Weed files, upload them, and review why it's and great song, why you chose it. Whatever the cost of the song, if 5 people buy it, the song has paid for itself. It's also a great place to look for new songs, because most songs are posted with a few words from a fan.
Weed files are legal to share, and will play 3 times for free (on Windows Machines. Macophiles, I feel your pain) They are ideal for new musicians, since it is usually free to get your music in this format, and the music must be original. Now that CD Baby has endorsed Weed, 65,000+ musicians can convert their files by oping in to Weed as part of digital distribution, again for free.
Oh, and Heart's new Album, Jupiter's Daughter, is available in Weed.
For some reason, this Weed - CD Baby deal is completely below the notice of the media. I think it's the biggest deal in OMD since MP3.com went public, but the media doesn't get it. Anyone see anything about it here on
With Weed files, there's actual potential for income for everyone
I Imagine I'm a figment of imagination. I suspect, I'm more but I must at least be that, because I know myself as that. As my own imagination. But, that doesn't get myself very far outside of myself. I'd prefer to imagine I'm in someone else's imagination. In fact, two people's.
I guess I'm back on Earth again.
It's always hard to know where to begin, It tends to be in the middle you think of it, or maybe even the end before even thinking for telling it.
I try to get back to the beginning, at least in the telling. I am Tem Noon and I have come to Earth with no particular abilities...but I would like to help people.
How much net work could a network work, if a network could net work?
