True. The bottom line has emerged as a question:

"How well do we trust their ability to promote?"
and
"Is this 'ability' worth 40% of cd sale profits (if there are any)"


Check just what that $1-per-CD covers. CDs packaged and wrapped, ready
for sale? Or something else? How does that compare with the cost of
production if you bought direct?


After the year is up, who retains ownership of the product?

These are some of the ponderings that have led us to step back and do
it independantly for a while. Thanks to all who have commented and
continue to comment! The lure of "being on a label" has been
triumphantly subdued by the powers of reason and logic, and a little
informational help from some friends... thanks
