Title: Tips on musicians making bitcoin? Post by: nemo on June 13, 2011, 02:17:25 AM I've been a fan of my friend's music for years. Now that I'm excited about this bitcoin thing I naturally suggested that he make a donations link accepting bitcoins. His music is free, but it's been a month and he hasn't gotten anything. I posted it up on reddit and the bitcoin wiki. We're both entertaining the idea that maybe he's just a talentless hack.
In case he isn't, what would you recommended he try and do? Title: Re: Tips on musicians making bitcoin?

To the good fellow that tipped me, thanks :)
For your friend, hope is not lost, there's just no culture of tipping musicians on the internet I suppose Title: Re: Tips on musicians making bitcoin? Post by: Joseph on June 13, 2011, 06:25:36 PM Someone posted his CD on Bitcoin Classifieds, I've heard he already sold at least one copy!

I'm a keen musician myself and when someone makes good tunes (interesting ones at that too) I'm happy to pay. And what easier way, than with Bitcoins! |
