Most SaaS companies have perpetually recurring costs of their own (e.g., storage, compute, bandwidth, security updates).
- egypturnash 3y agoMost artists have perpetually recurring costs too: rent, subscriptions to digital tools, food, etc.
- mcculley 3y agoIndeed. An artist should set the price of a piece sold with these costs in mind.
- AnAfrican 3y agoA struggling artist may not be in a strong position to negotiate. When rent or food are needed now, you take what you can.
- clipsy 3y agoAn art buyer should negotiate the purchase price with droit de suite in mind.
- mcculley 3y agoCertainly, if the transaction takes place in a jurisdiction where it applies.
- nine_k 3y agoThese perpetually recurring costs are not directly connected to rendering an ongoing service. They are very understandable though.
