How is CD Baby?
Is it worth it? I've never even tried to sell any of my music but thinking I have nothing to lose.

I put one of my records there, found it kind of expensive and it brought no extra business my way.
If I may, we're about finished with a project where you can sell your albums here, should be ready within a week.

Cd baby has a variety of packages at different price points.
For 50 bucks they will digital distribute to itunes and amazon etc.
I choose the free package in this deal there is no upfront cost but they take a cut of the sales.
For example I set my album price at 5 dollars and from each sale I get 4.25
I set the individual track price at 59 cents and I get 50 cents.
Since is not on Itunes I basically get a cdbaby player that I can sell my songs on facebook or where ever else the player is available. I have not had much luck with sales in general but this is a good way to test the water with no upfront cost.
Looking forward to see what option IMP will offer.
Two Silo Complex,

---- Updated 4/29/2016 1:20:07 PM
Updated the art on my Two Silo Complex facebook page and added the track list.
In general looks pretty good. Still undecided on the font color for inside insert and back cover. I have not found a color that I like yet that works with the theme. I had wanted the track list to be a different color that the artist and title text. Black did not work and silver does seem to quite work either so I might end up going with blue text but I'm not keen on it.
If you notice the art for the album the blood effect is progressively worse each page.
Starts with bleeding heart cover small puddle. Next page insert is streaming blood in large drips. Then back cover is a pool of blood with ripples from the dripping blood.
Its meant to show everything I have given to this project over the last 9 years.
20 years if you count the fan favorites Abecedarian's Plight and Shadows in the Midst that were done in 1996.
Basically by the end its telling you I give you all that I have to date. "Bleed me dry" which is a title to another song I wrote but won't make it on this album.
This album represents what I think to date is the best Two Silo Complex original work. Unfortunately I can't include sound of silence cover because to do that I have to purchase a separate licence for a specific quantity of downloads. My license that I have now is streaming only.
I don't have great hopes for sales since that is a pipe dream but if its not available people can't buy it so I will do my part "build it" and hope that "they will come".
Two Silo Complex,
Ken

Definitely don't get your hopes up because people just aren't buying indie music as far as I can tell.
