For the new or home based artist, digital distribution is where its at. 80% of all digital sales come through Apple's i-tunes.
There are basically two ways for the newbie to get on i-tunes.....
There is nothing more thrilling in the world than logging on to your CDbaby online account and viewing your royality statement. To realize that people around the world are listening and buying your music is an indescribable high.
The main difference between the two is that CDbaby charges a one time $35 set-up fee and a percentage of your sales, while Tune-core charges a yearly fee. Tune-core will also let you put up a single song , where CDbaby is more orientated toward an entire CD or EP. Both will distribute to a variety of on-line music services like Rhapsody, e-music, and Napster.
