Commission only. If musicians don't make any money nor do we.
Pledges can be withdrawn at any time, and unspent funds can be collected free of charge forever.
No contracts to sign. Musicians and their fans are the only judges.
Release here or elsewhere, or both - any time.
It's only a button.
Or only some reserved - it's the musician's work, it's up to them.
Nothing's released until the musician's paid. After that, file-sharing is free air-time and free publicity.
QuidMusic lets you sell your music direct to your fans. Each of them pledges to buy your next release for £1.
It's a similar process to having a donate button, but you get the money all in one go – if and when you release via QuidMusic.
This way you don't release your recording to the first punter only for it to be shared like wildfire the following day.
If the money on the table isn't enough – no worries – wait until it is. No exclusive contract. No risk – to you or your fans And QuidMusic's 85% royalty is fair and competitive.
Further information for Musicians
Would you like to have more great music released by your favourite musicians?
Why not pledge to buy their next releases for £1 each?
£10 gets you 10 releases at digital master quality from as many of QuidMusic's musicians as you like. You can close your account and collect unspent funds at any time.
QuidMusic is an entirely new way to buy and sell music.
Instead of recording new music, retailing each copy to their fans one by one in music shops or online, QuidMusic lets musicians deal directly with their fans en masse.
Musicians can now simply put a
button on their web page.
This let's the musician sell their music and not the copies.
This pledge button represents a commitment by the fan to buy the musician's next release for £1. At last there's a way a fan can say "I like your music. Please make more. I'll be happy to buy your next release for £1."
If nothing is released, the fan pays nothing and gets nothing.
But if there is a release, each fan pays £1, and not only gets to download one or more MP3 files, but can also download high quality digital masters too!
If the musician can't really afford to release their next work for less than say £1,000, no worries, they can wait until they have at least a thousand fans. QuidMusic won't release anything until the musician's ready.
QuidMusic is all about a free and fair marketplace in which musicians and fans can meet and decide whether or not to do a deal - with no pressure. Musicians can decide to sell their music elsewhere. Fans can withdraw their pledges.
QuidMusic only makes any charge when something is released (15% commission to cover credit card transaction fees and other costs), so it's absolutely free to try without risk or commitment.
