They will be sold through a website -- rightwingparodies.com -- and perhaps on ebay. Any other marketing ideas would be appreciated since this is a new venture for the company. It is hoped that talk shows will provide some free plugs.

You know FOX will pick it up! Rush should as well, I'm sure! I smile just thinking about it! My husband (Gorgiboy) will love it - sounds like a good wedding anniversary present! :) It certainly beats a "The Spin Stops Here" door mat!

Got a "Good Old Boy" Tavern (Bar) in your area? See if you can get some play time there during Happy Hour, and have CDs on hand to sell.

Best of Luck! :)

It looks like it is pretty easy to sell as an independent label on iTunes -- just fill out an application, use their software to convert to AAC and to add track info, cover photo, etc. From reading around the web, it looks like out of the $0.99, Apple gets $0.35 and the artist/label gets $0.64 per track downloaded. I imagine some of Apple's share is eaten up with promotions like bulk discounts (e.g., the Pepsi promotion) -- I don't know if it matters to the artist /label commission.

I'd imagine the other services are similar (though I can certainly understand not wanting to use Real Networks, given their direct political ties).

If Biden hears this he'll be first in line for samples.
