Hi, I'm an adult whos into bumes. But not boners!

Do you have any comprehension of how much it costs to make a CD?

Hiring a studio to record costs $100-200 an hour, for starters. The mechanical license in order to produce it costs $.091 per song, per album. I.E. a 10 song album = $.91. If you’re going to sell 100,000 albums that’s a cool $91,000.

Furthermore, the materials for the CDs themselves cost another dollar per, so tack another $100,000 on there. Add in costs for marketing, publicity, hiring the musicians, covering any legal fees, etc. the grand total is upwards of half a million dollars.

You think that a CD is better to steal than a car? Think again.

EDIT: I’m not saying they’re taking it and saying that they produced it; it’s just another one of the exclusive rights. The only difference is saying you own it infringes all the rights, and stealing copies for yourself just infringes the distribution and reproduction rights.

EDIT: Obviously this is mbum-produced, fullscale professional CDs too. I don’t mean your crappy indy label stuff.

You don’t need a “studio”, you are able to do that **** from home. And with todays environment, you don’t even need CDs.
