HI all:

Hope you all had a good summer.

Question: has anyone been using Spotify? I just got an "invite" and
installed it. It's kind of amazing what you can listen to there.

Plus I found out that thru CDBaby, my music is available on Spotify.
I am starting to see a few 1 cent royalty payments (1 cent times one
million equals....)

Regards,

Robin

I was at a music tech conference last week where someone said that Lady Gaga's Spotify royalties for one month were only $148. That tells you how much the rest of us will see:-)

It is a powerful platform, though,

I get occasional one-cent payments from Spotify also.

But I can't use Spotify. Apparently I'm in a non-existent country from
a licensing perspective.

They promise they're coming soon. Just as Pandora has been doing for
the past ten years or so.
