I currently get around 300 downloads a day for my music. I record really strange sci fi rock stuff these days. And got around 7 million views on Youtube through the years. When I put a price tag of 99 cents for song downloads the downloads went to Zero. LOL! So I give away for free and they can use the songs for any use commercially or personal but they have to credit me and my web site where I have links to Doctors Without Borders which is my charity and have T shirts on there which goes to charity. I'm retired now played pro for 10 years in the 70's so don't really care about the money at this stage of my life. They did use the beginning of one of my songs for the winner announcements on Americas got talent for free. And of course they didn't credit me. Typical Corporate stuff. I think you can make money though giving your songs away for free to get fans to your web site where you can sell other things like tshirts or maybe even find a sponsor. I know a group who got a sponsorship from a Whiskey company. Selling songs for the most part is a thing of the past. Even the biggest stars like David Crosby said his income has been cut in half. Musicians when they got older could live off those classic record sales in their retirement not anymore they have to keep playing now into old age which is killing a lot of them.
