well, i think, if you just post partial snippets of your songs, you can hook the listener into buying your complete cd and/or download, and then, you dont even have to worry about "record label royalties" because the buyer will be giving you the $ directly, for what they buying, circumventing the record label totally... that is, if you are selling your music independent of a record label. more $ for you, no money for the record label (yay!) mmm more $...
