Interesting
Could you have a site just for music that also helps bands get their music into Itunes Store, Amazon etc, and then makes revenue from referral links to those stores. So on the bands site, the only advertising are links allowing people to buy that band's music from iTunes or Amazon
- ahlatimer 17y agoI've been tossing around the idea of something like this. I don't know if it would be able to compete with something like last.fm, but I think allowing bands to quickly throw up a profile (with the possibility of styling to their liking), then taking a percentage of whatever is sold through the site wouldn't be a bad idea. Bands get exposure and a place to communicate with fans. Fans can discover new artists without the amount of ads MySpace has. Everyone wins.
- cubicle67 17y agoThat's pretty much exactly what I was thinking, with the addition of helping bands get their music into the various online stores. So yeah, give it a shot. Sounds like there's a market there if done well
- teeja 17y agobandcamp.com If I had a band and didn't have time worry about the web much, I'd want to own a domain and pay someone 10 percent of our combined take to make it and keep it the way I want it. The more we make, the more they make.
