Are you planning to shift to production as you get older? I mean producing tracks, albums, etc for other artists?

Out of curiosity, what is the most you have ever profited off of a vinyl release? I'm just asking because I've been seeing artists like NIN get away from record labels and move to self-released digital files. I'm sure many people share the tracks with others, but at least the profit being made is straight to the artist. Could you do digital releases and charge like 2 quid per track? It's a very slow train that's coming, and it has been coming for years. Yes, MP3s have affected sales, but nothing will change their proliferation. Best to get on it and figure out a model that works as well as possible (and do it asap).

Cheers
well a bit of a change in direction for the thread
but yeah it's a bloody good idea to sell your music yourself I reckon.
