TuneCore, Amazon Set to Unveil On-Demand CD Sales

| _Griphin_ User Info... |  TuneCore is poised to partner with Amazon’s on-demand CD-printing-and-distribution service, Wired.com has learned. It’s a deal that could put powerful new physical publishing options in the hands of musicians, even as the world goes increasingly digital. Tunecore will charge just $31 a year in upfront fees to handle a 10-track CD from pressing to delivery, passing all other costs through to the buyer. In other words, the service promises to remove nearly all of the risks of short-run CD manufacturing, which can cost musicians hundreds or even thousands of dollars for discs that rarely sell enough to cover expenses. Brooklyn-based TuneCore gave us a peek inside its accounting system, which shows the most successful artists on the service regularly earning upwards of $20,000 per month. Chump change this is not. Thought this might be interesting to local bands, so you invest $41 to put an album on Amazon, and selling only 9 copies of the CD puts ya in the black (ya get 40% back on sales, not a bad investment actually). - Fri, 22 May 2009 11:32am Edited: Fri, 22 May 2009 11:33am | ||
