Pretty much the way I thought it would go ...

but I had to ask.

So, I have an offer for a place to put the funny stuff, but that is just a part of what I do. Roper mentioned CD Baby, which I will look into tonight (or this weekend, if time goes the way I think it is going to go the next couple of days)

Any other ideas of places to sell MP3s. I looked at the service on Myspace, but they bite into the sales a LOT ...

if it hasn't been mentioned, you can opt to do digital sales through cdbaby, and they will put it *everywhere* (itunes, etc.) if you're going through cdbaby, you may as well use this service. it doesn't cost any extra to set up the digital. they're very reliable, very helpful, and pay every week.
i know a lot of indie artists who use cdbaby and they all rave about it.

i personally hate the myspace "service" for selling mp3s, if you're talking about snocap. they have zero customer support. i'm going to delete my store from my myspace page.

i also post (especially the funny songs) to madmusicarchive.com. that is easy because you can e mail him mp3s, and don't even need to have an existing cd of any given song. which, with cdbaby, you do have to have a cd with a UPC and sign it up fully before it can get to itunes, etc. so i find madmusicarchive fills a nice hole in that i can send in stuff that hasn't been released on cd.

Everything I saw about Snocap seemed ... well ... bad.

I'm talking to the folks at the Mad Music Archive ...

And I will have the occasional Fump song as well. I think I am getting it covered.

sounds like you have made great choices. i've been happy with cdbaby and madmusic, and of course impressed with the fump though m,y first song hasn't appeared yet (soon!)
