Visits to music piracy websites went up more than 13 percent last year, a new report says. The majority of those visits were to sites that allow users to download the audio from YouTube URLs.
I’m pretty current on technology but honestly never heard of Youtube-To-MP3 conversion.
Thinking this may be the ticket to cutting the cord with Spotify, but as others have suggested, I fully intend to buy tracks of my favorite indie folks too.
Do artists actually get a decent cut from Band Camp?
Bandcamp, according to their help page, takes a 15% cut from purchases until the artist makes 5k in sales, in which case they take 10%
Bandcamp was recently sold as far as I’m aware. Also, after a recent purchase I made from them I had my credit card frauded. Can’t say with 100% assurance that it was because of something going on with bandcamp, but it’s my belief it was them. Something seems off from before, so I’ve decided to take a break from buying anything from them for a while.
They were bought by epic games recently, but I don’t think it was bandcamp that stole your card info
