Below are a few links to various sites that allow individuals to sell their songs. Please visit a few of the sites to get morefamiliar with them before you start placing your songs into the consumer market.

Audigist.com

Audigist is a digital distribution service for record companies, unsigned bands and artists. Artists receive 75% of the download price, and their own page to upload images and info.

AudioPyro

Easy-listen

Easy-listen.com is an online music download service striving to serve the community of professional musicians by offering them a sales channel direct to the public. Downloads go at 0,99€ per single track. Musicians may check the status of their sales online 24×7. Confirmation emails are also sent every time a sale is made. Keep track of your sales with all the transparent convenience of theinternet.

Lulu.com

Highly recommended for individual download sales. Lulu.com is an on-demand publisher of books, music, and images.The good: An inexpensive way to sell your tracks and CDs. Listeners may preview your work via streaming audio. Listeners may rate the quality of your work. You set the price for your download, all the way down to FREE. You may choose to allow other artists to include your work along with their own projects and receive full royalties. NON-EXCLUSIVE. No wait — your content is available instantly.

The bad: Uploading custom album covers and art is a bit of a pain. You must use ‘customize your storefront’ in order to change song order — another pain. Not good for CD sales that I can see, but you can sell individual downloads.

Mperia

Mperia is an online outlet for CDBaby. Uploading an album to CDBaby and accepting their exclusive digital distribution deal gets your tracks added to Mperia, where the individual digital tracks can be sold.The good: Easily sell your tracks online. Promotion tools.

PrimeTones

It was designed as a ringtones (for your cell phone) site, but it’s accepting artists and providing them with artist pages. Individual download sales. Allows deep linking.

SoundLoud/SoundStation

The good: Nice enough layout, good genres. Individual download sales and digital CD sales permitted with a paid subscription — all proceeds go to artist. Some strong artists on SoundStation. SoundLoud Radio coming soon. Don’t known much else about this one yet. Not sure how much traffic this one gets. I uploaded one song and was immediately featured on my genre page — that was nifty.

The bad: No deep linking that I can see, could be wrong. You must pay a minimum of $9.95/mo. for e-commerce (selling downloads, CDs). Albums sold on SoundStation are digital only.

TradeBit.com

Tradebit is an intelligent file hosting platform, used by many independent musicians to sell their MP3s on their OWN PayPal account.
