You had about 121,000 streamed tunes from Apple at a rate of 0.0045 cents per stream. So you made $544.50 for this one example before various fee or taxation deductions. What is the bit rate, file size, format(s) of the streaming and file downloads? Do you ever make CDs for people to buy?

[@TheCuriousIncident]

Thanks for watching - yes I've sold a bunch of physical EPs (Cds with a few songs on them) at live shows and also online through my website. Personalising the CDs (signing them and writing thank-you notes helps a lot :)

I am doing research on possible ways to help artist get more revenue on there streams. Since Intellectual Property is a way for artists to duplicate themselves. Would you say that Top artists like Elton John recieve the same revenue per stream as the junior guy do per stream? Per stream take note on that one.

OMG. No wonder artists are not making any money from streaming services. Artists are only making real money from live concerts. Back in the iTunes era an artist got 7 cents per song purchased. 121k x 0.07 = $8,470.00 us dollars If 121k people bought the album from iTunes you would have made $169,400.00 us dollars Back in CD era 121k bought your CD you would've had $242,000.00 us dollars Vinyl era 121k bought your album you would've had $484,000.00 us dollars With new technology, the music profits went way down instead of up.

That's a fair point Angel. One thing to consider is that selling 121k CDs back then was very tough and you'd likely need a big marketing machine to get to that point. The internet makes 'going viral' a possibility (not that I've figured out how to do that for myself yet haha).

Distrokid is good because actually pay you for your work and contribution as a artist 💲

[@limaroena]

Hello, I have a subscription to Apple Music and occasionally buy songs on iTunes to support them. The purchased songs are automatically saved in the Apple Music app. My question: Do my streams with the music subscription still count (for charts, royalties) and therefore count twice? Or does the server recognize that the song was purchased and not count the streams?

You should also try distrokid as distributor, a lot of independent artists recommend it

[@TheCuriousIncident]

Thanks Lord! Might use Distrokid for my next release 😊

Bro I’m a rapper

Bro how do you brand your music? Singles, albums? I have 3 albums out with less than 6,000 streams per ALBUM since 2008 (debut) / 2015 (sophomore album). These numbers are (to me) reachable but I just don’t know how to let fans know that my music is out there? I’m currently looking into playlist push, Orion promotion, Omari and even Hypeddit-I’m just not sure. And I find a bit hard to believe that because I haven’t released one single, may not come to fruition or may never gain traction.

[@TheCuriousIncident]

Hire me to do your marketing for you 😉 Seriously though, whether you work with someone like me or put the time in to learn digital marketing yourself such as FB ads and email marketing; this will have the biggest growth effect on your music. I like some of the playlist promo options but your initial budget is way better spent elsewhere (especially as you can recoup some costs with merch sales)
