We Play, You Pay.. If you want to

The ever enlightened and slightly peculiar (in a nice way) Canadian Jane Siberry stopped selling CDs about a year back. Instead she sold her music as MP3s from her website. Unfortunately, for overseas customers, publishing rights meant that not many of her MP3s could be bought. However, when choosing your download location, Jane now suggests “Canada is a GOOD choice – you can choose from more songs!”.

Jane’s taken things one step further.

When you buy music from her site now, there are four payment options:

  • Free
  • Pay whatever amount you want to
  • Pay whatever amount you want to, but later
  • Pay the standard going rate, about ¢99 per song

50 Foot Wave are taking things even further with their upcoming EP. It will be called Free Music and will be free.
