Amie Street - a new approach to selling music on the Internet.
Let's just say our music has been selling for a long time in all sorts of online stores in the west. We even managed to survive the bankruptcy of one of the stores, from which we received some of our first money for music.
Basically, of course, it was sold mp3 and files in other formats, not discs and other media. And about a year ago a store appeared, which even surprised us a little, even the wise, so to speak, experienced ones. I was surprised by my approach to how music is evaluated and how musicians, songs and stores are promoted to engage potential buyers in their promotion.
Let's start from the position of a musician, since I came there as a musician, yeah. So, when you come and upload your first track on amiestreet.com , it appears on the pages of this site for free. Not the first track, by the way, also starts with a cost of 0 cents. And then - the more people decided to download your creation, the higher the level of this creation of value is raised. The first couple of dozens of volunteers will get the track for free, and then the cost of the composition can gradually grow to almost a dollar.
')
Well, musicians from this money receive deductions according to the following scheme: the first 5 dollars that a certain track earned go to the store, and then the musician starts to receive 70% of sales. The first payment - as soon as at least $ 10 has accumulated, well, the payments go through PayPal.
Now let's look at the customer: when you register on the site, you start with 0 bucks in your wallet (or, if you're lucky enough to find a promo code on the network, then this zero can turn into a couple bucks) and with a certain amount of local currency called REC. Each REC can be used to express support for a single track on the site. And further, if this track starts to sell and grow in price with your submission, then you can, if you wish, turn your recommendation into real money. If you had time to introduce the composition, when it was still free, and then its cost rises to, say, 50 cents, then you can earn 50 cents on the track, that is, the difference between the cost of the composition, when you recommended it and its cost, when you decide to take the money. And if tomorrow the same track will rise in price to 70 cents, and you took the money when it cost 50, well, then you are in a hurry and you will not pick up the new 20 cents.
You can replenish the amount of these RECs by transferring money to the site, or by inviting new users.
Well, I wouldn’t have been me if there hadn’t been a couple of links to a couple of musicians whose music will soon rise in price . So it is quite possible to go recommend right now.
