I am on iTunes and Pandora with my partner.

We have made a decent penny without ANY involvement from a record label.

Life is simple... We pay a low fee to have our music hosted on Pandora and iTunes. People on Pandora like our stuff and buy it and we get the money... No record label gets one red cent.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
