Amie Street Review: The best music store ever
Posted by hank, Wed Mar 07 07:04:00 UTC 2007
I’ve decided Amie Street is the best idea in music shopping for a long time.
- Artists post there songs there, which are downloadable for free
- As more people download them, their cost increases.
- If they get really popular, they go up to 99 cents, but no higher.
- The artist collects 70% of the money the songs earn!
- Barenaked Ladies just released their new album there, which I bought within about 3 minutes getting an account.
It’s easy. You just put in your billing info, and get direct credit for your money. I put in $25, which was enough to but the whole album and then some. The album cost me $14.30, which means about $10 went directly to Barenaked Ladies instead of $1. I hope this catches on and completely replaces CDs and Record Companies.
