Yes.....I don't think you know what you're talking about.
I want you to explain to this board how it would NOT be worth it for, say, 100 COPIES of this new FTS album to be printed up.
I CLAIM that the price would be around $3.25 or so per unit (Retail-Ready, Basic inserts, Shrinkwrapped), and that--being as though these would be LIMITED EDITIONS, only meant for HARDCORE FANS--they could easily bring in $8-10/unit plus shipping.
That would not bring in thousands of dollars, but it WOULD bring in a profit, it WOULD satisfy a market (Hardcore SLR fans), and it WOULD be something that could be considered a Collector's Item............ALL OF THIS could be done, rather than simply putting the album up for download and being done with it.
This does NOT even take into consideration, the fact that one COULD simply order 1000 or so BULK Replicated CDs, and have them shipped for around $500....then slap them into CHEAP slim cases from any Office Depot....add some HOME-MADE inserts......for a total unit cost of around ONE DOLLAR OR LESS......and then sell THOSE for a few bucks each plus shipping.
--------------------
YOU CLAIM that it (the first option, you have not seen the second) is not worth it......but you refuse to provide your own figures.
You simply want to insult me and talk shit about me, even though I am the one with EXPERIENCE doing this kind of thing, and you are just the guy who has seen OTHER PEOPLE do it.
Care to continue, or should this thread be closed/deleted?
