Zusammenstellung
Zitat:
The RIAA's latest move to increase online music prices (http://www.theregister.co.uk/2004/0...es_price_rises/) mandate that somebody does the math so here goes. Based on Billboard Magazine's numbers (probably not the most industry hostile publication you can imagine ) that can be seen in the pie chart, we have the following costs for online music:
Signing and producing: $1.08
Royalties: $1.99
Marketing: $2.15
Company overhead: $1.11 (no distro/shipping so 1/3rd of total)
Distribution: $0.10 (online, costs next to nothing)
Total $6.43
I left the co-op out since online advertising is cheaper and can often be gotten for free (get a song in the charts and apple will put it on the itunes frontpage anyway). This is for a $16.98 CD.. so that leaves more than 10 bucks as studio profit. Even if the whole thing is sold for 10 bucks, that still leaves $3.50. Now, maybe I should assume that Apple has another $1 overhead (generally, since the whole thing is online, the overhead should be significantly lower, and for existing albums, you can just run the CD through itulnes and get the proper AAC file so the effort is next to nothing), that still leaves a lot for the studios. And we know Apple doesn't make any money with iTunes. So a studio reaps up to 10 bucks in benefits per CD.. I don't think I'm the only one to find this a little bit greedy.
Oh, and btw.. assuming there are 15 songs on the average CD and using the $9.99 sale price per CD, that makes $0.66 per song, not $0.99 or now $1.29. And where does the additional $0.33 - $0.63 go? It most certainly isn't the artist.

Ach ja, im Moment gibts noch einige LEGALE und völlig "for FREE" Music Downloads.
Wenn man sich den "Total Recoder" (ein Audioaufzeichnungsprogramm) holt und noch den Windows Media Player hat ist es einfach:
1. Starte Total Recorder
2. Im WMP auf Guide und dann gewünschten Musiktitel eingeben.
3. Jetzt läuft zwar das Lied im "Stream" aber man kann es nicht speichern
4. Lied auf Pause stellen, an den anfang zurück und dann im TR den O (Aufnahme) knopf drücken.
5. Die Aufnahme startet sobald ein Sound losgeht (also zb beim drücken auf Play im WMP)
6. Warten bis es Fertig ist .. Speichern und fertig
