Bandcamp Decoded: An Indie Musician's Best (and Most Profitable) Friend (Switched)

Jan 24th 2011 10:18PM Great to see a feature on Bandcamp, but I disagree with the following idea.

"We suggest following the pricing precedents set by iTunes."

If you're an unknown artist, the name of the game is getting yourself as much exposure as humanly possible, and the iTunes pricing structure - 99 cents a song - actually significantly inhibits that.

The best pricing option that Bandcamp offers, and one not discussed in this article, is the option of trading songs for e-mail addresses. That gives you the option of maintaining contact with people who may simply be passing through.
