Wow! That's about as ballsy as David Grahame's $2 song download.
Actually...more so, if they're asking for a $50 donation.
I thought consumers supported artists by paying for their product *after* it
was finished?
As for seallaband.com, if their tier level is $50K...someone is scraping a
helluva lot off the top
and laughing all the way to the bank.
Anyone with the right gear and know-how can make a top notch studio album
for less than $10K.
Hell...artists can make fantastic albums in their bedrooms w/ a ProTools rig
and a few good condenser mics for chrissake!
