They say it\u2019s foolish for new acts to make CDs because no one wants to pay for music anymore. They say CD sales are down and it will never go up again especially now that any song is just a click away. They say that we should just give free music online and get money from tours and merch than lose thousands of dollars in making CDs. But… BUT…What kind of a\u00a0 musician doesn\u2019t have CDs?<\/p>\n
Only amateurs who want to remain amateurs.<\/span><\/p>\n I’m not just saying this because we are a CD manufacturing company. If you believe in your music and if you have a long-term plan for your career, then you would invest CDs the way you invest in your set of drums or expensive guitar. Look at it as a big investment for your long-term goals and not a way to get instant cash.<\/span><\/p>\n By making CDs, you are saying that you are not a coward\u2026that you have enough confidence in your music that you are willing to gamble a few dollars because you know you really are good and you definitely have something new to offer. If you are a new act and you have a really good CD (from content to packaging), then you will surely impress your fans. And more importantly, it is more likely that you will impress record labels, your local magazine, and managers.<\/span><\/p>\n Here are other reasons why you should still make CDs when’ no one pays for music anymore’:<\/span><\/p>\n Image.<\/strong> If you have a CD out, it would make people think that you are a legitimate act. It creates an impression that you really mean business and you\u2019re not just another indie band who will fade out eventually.<\/span><\/p>\n
