Why should I put my bands music into SecureSong format?
SecureSong offers do-it-yourself, pay-as-you-go promotion and distribution with minimal up-front cost. When you release your music as SecureSongs, you can give them away freely, post them on web sites, distribute them on data CDs, or share them on peer-to-peer networks. Anybody with a PC who receives one of your SecureSongs can listen to it up to 3 times for free. After that, they’re asked to buy the song at the price you’ve set. And you get up to 70% on every sale of your music. You don’t need to be signed to a label or even have a full CD produced to get started. Most importantly, you should provide more options to your potential customers. According to the Hollywood Reporter, sales of digital songs rose 77% from the first half of 2005 to the first half of 2006. In the same periods, sales of downloaded albums rose 126% while traditional CD album sales fell 4.2%. Customers are moving toward downloaded music so you should provide them with digital options.
