So last.fm have finally opened their Artist Payment Program and you can all upload your bands music and start earning royalties. At the moment the amount is tiny see the details. Depending on how the music is streamed you get between $0.0005 and $0.005 or 10%-30% of the 'share' of last.fm's 'net revenue' per play. It's all quite complicated but anyway.
So will any of the bands on here be uploading their stuff?

If they can get their sodding tagging right that is. People are terrible.
Gee.... I don't know about the rest of you guys, but lately the only things that truly motivate me are erections and bowel movements.

Less than that. It's not worth a wank.
I have little more to say on this matter.

I've registered my Price Of Freedom album I made at uni, that I uploaded to lastfm for free download a while ago, for royalty fun. I'll make millions, as it's an epic metal masterpiece.

Re: Last.fm to pay unsigned artists on their network
Heres a thought. If we all go to HODs album. And all press play a few times n refresh the page, will it make a difference?

It's worth a try but I think last.fm will use some cleverness to see through it and steal all of HOD's money

They've been over with bats now wanting the penny back. They took my dog as collateral.

I'd imagine so, otherwise you could just log out of your profile and listen to your music all day and become a billionaire.
