It just seems that nobody wants to pay for a damn thing these days, no matter how good (AND cheap) it is.

We've come to the point that producers are on MySpace or whatever with dirt-cheap "lease rates"....and guys like you are putting out a quality product for THREE FREAKING DOLLARS, knowing that you'll sacrifice a ton of potential listeners just because there's $$$ involved.

For example, Crown Nation is the shit, but they started out charging $5 for their Bandcamp releases...to doing a two-week run of fucking TWO DOLLAR price tags....to finally offering Slut Bag Edition for free (for "a limited time," of course).

Artists are living in desperate times. I'm pulling for you.
