As if there weren’t already enough option for fan funded releases, UK start-up Pledge Music launches. It allows artists to set the target for an amount they wish to raise, and then ask for pledges from fans in return for incentives including downloads, CDs and gig tickets. The company takes no money from fans until the target is met and artists retain all rights. The real difference from the rest is that they charge the lowest flat-rate commission, so they say.
I wonder if there will be enough bands able to generate enough attention and money to populate all those sites. Why not have a band featured on all of those sites and start a who is the quickest to deliver what they promise :) . I know, I’m evil.
