you can pay 20 bucks a month and make money and shit, but you'll only break even if you have like a million plays a month.
so yeah.
or you can just not pay them, and not make any money either (like most of us).
...that wasn't a very good explaination. go to mp3.com if you wanna know all the details.
the service there is really bad tho, like yo have to wait 1-3 weeks or more before your songs get authorized, and if you send them an email regarding whatever it'll take like forever to respond.

www.electronicscene.com is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than mp3.com. It's focused on electronic music (duh) and has instant song approval/page changes. You can only upload 2 tracks for free, but the rates are much more competetive than anything else I've seen. It's just started up, and currently has about 600 tracks online I think. You can also use a variety of bitrates for your mp3s, including VBRs. I recommend it.
Chris.

I am just shy of 12,000 plays, and am at $22.01 for about 8 months of being online (I signed up when I started making music, and I don't spam at all, so I think that is pretty good). I haven't made a cent off of that, because to get any of that money I would have to pay $20 a month.
I don't want to pay $20 a month to make $20 in 8 months. Its not worth it.
If you want your songs to clear faster, upload in batches. Take my word for it. It will take days instead of months for you, if you upload more than 6 or so.
But no. Don't expect to make money. If anything it gets you attention, and kinda gives you an indecation of how people respond to your shit (which is almost as good as money if you market yourself properly).
I had a couple offers to publish my shit in small labels and compolations. I haven't actually followed thru with it (just because I don't have the cash to pay for postage and extra cd-r's and stuff).
