IF MUSIC ALBUMS ARE HISTORY, DIGI-CARDS ARE HERE TO SAVE THE SINGLE

MANY ARTISTS ARE LAUNCHING SINGLES, BUT WHAT IF THERE WAS MORE

As music sales in general decreased, albums have become economically unviable. Production, manufacturing, and distribution costs make an album a hard sale where normally only one or two songs will become the favorites of the listeners. With the unfortunate business model that Apple introduced with iTunes in the late 90s–the “pizza slice” single sales– only the top singles of an album would be sold and downloaded. Fast forward to 2016; there is nothing we can do about it now so the only option is to adapt. Digi-cards download cards have been a great tool for recording artists to sell whole albums physically or “hand to hand”, and maybe the only successful company in the industry to do so since, who would really want to buy paper or laminated cards in exchange for cash? Only Digi-cards are full PVC plastic, therefore they are the favorites of major recording artists as well as independent artists. Getting back to “Single” sales, what if artists could sell a single song for around five dollars? With Digi-cards download cards you could. How? Simple, with all the benefits that you can add to a Digi-card, you could very easily do it. First and foremost, your Single is there, not only on mp3 but in uncompressed high fidelity audio. Your Video is also in two formats, compressed for mobile devices and HD for up to 4k TV screens. You have the ringtone, photos, lyrics, a welcome video that you want to share with each of your buyers, and many links to all of your social media so they can follow you and “Like” you. Last but not least, there is the opportunity for your music buyers to win prizes like t-shirts, an autographed guitar, baseball caps, etc., instantly. All of this while building your fan base and making five dollars a pop and not even doing anything extra you already have or have access to. Only Digi-cards download cards give you this opportunity, do not try it with anyone else, they can´t. This is why Digi-cards are the leading producers of download cards in the world.

MONEY MAKING OPPORTUNITIES FOR RECORDING ARTISTS

THIRD-PARTY ONLINE STORES, MUSIC STREAMING SERVICES, OR DIGI-CARDS DOWNLOAD CARDS

For the past decade, the music industry has seen the biggest shift in the way business is conducted. However, regardless of the changes, the end result is always song or album sales. One of the common denominators in the equation has to be digital distribution since it is here to stay. Even though many artists blame it for causing the “pizza slice effect”, it is the only option in a modern world and one must adapt. So how do recording artists make money by selling songs and albums using digital distribution? There are three options (let’s list them in order of appearance). The first option is third-party online stores like: itunes, CD baby, etc. Pros: it is now very easy to upload content to them and have your space in their online store servers for a percentage of the sales. You also get the prestige of having your music in their store. Cons: everyone can be in the store (even dogs barking) so unless someone knows your name or band (other than your family) your chances of selling your music are next to null. You can always promote your download page, but in many cases people will dish out some credit card money for better-known or more popular artists. The second option is using music streaming services like: Spotify, Apple Music, Pandora, Amazon Prime Music, etc. Pros: it seems to be a nice, steady source of income for recording artists and the future of radio. Cons: unless you have a Top 100 Billboard hit, forget about making any money. Even if your songs get into the playlist, your income will be so watered-down that your bandmates will have to continue delivering pizza to earn a living for years to come. The third option is Digi-cards download cards. Pros: ever heard of impulse sales and purchases? Digi-cards download cards have the only business model that connects a physical product with digital online distribution and they have many favorable factors. We are not asking you to go door-to-door like old vacuum salesmen; most likely if you are a musician or recording artist you move in circuits that gather a lot of people that listen to music at festivals, concerts, club gigs, etc. With Digi-cards download cards you can literally give them a piece of you, just like merchandising, and what better product than your music? Forget baseball caps, t-shirts, and stickers. Hit them with your best product: your own, collectible Digi-cards download card with your song, video, or album on it. Take their cash, put it in your pocket, and go spend it on pizza that other bands will deliver to you because they are still selling music in online stores or through streaming services. Cons: many download cards manufacturers do not take the presentation and quality of their product seriously. You might end up with paper or laminated cards that are hard to sell, or you might end up with half-customized cards or platforms. Make sure you do your research. Remember the rule, “you get what you pay for”, otherwise, you might end up with 500 or 1000 albums in your pocket instead of making $5,000 or $10,000. It is up to you. One thing is for sure: physical, tangible products are still preferred by many in our digital world. Take advantage of it now because others will and you might end up being the one delivering the pizza.

Digi-cards + iPad 2

DIGI-CARDS READY FOR IPAD 2

Miami, Fl Mar.02.2011

DIGI-CARDS READY FOR IPAD 2Apple′s iPad 2 was released today and as expected it does not carry a USB port which shows the tendency of the industry to move on to virtual file download access instead of flash drive or SanDisk physical multimedia distribution. Digi-cards is ready for the challenge being one of the only options for a tangible and physical multimedia distribution device. With the new iPad 2′s embedded cameras and a soon to be release Digi-cards application for Apple′s mobile devices (iPad, iPhone and iPod touch) Digi-cards is only a click away (via camera) from end user multimedia enjoyment. Because of Apple′s restrictions on third party multimedia you can only stream Digi-cards content through their devices but you have the option to download the multimedia to personal computers and then upload them to each device, it is expected that those restrictions will lift soon. Digi-cards are the world′s leader producer of digital download cards in the world and soon to be one of the only options to physically distribute any multimedia to the masses.
