Beagle stupid forum software.
And I thought that was an attempt to catch up with Bapu's post count in one thread.

I got a few things signed from their services but.... nothing ever happened with them. I've since placed several dozens of cues in other libraries and hopefully, something will be cut....

I've made my fortune with Cakewalk software. To find out how, just put $20 in and envelope marked "Get Rich With Sonar Offer" and mail to P.O. Box.....  ...In four to six weeks you will receive your special "Get Rich With Sonar" packet...

RJB That's about it; you should make the music for your own purposes, and if someone else likes it, or even wants to pay you for it, then that's an unexpected bonus. And, yeah, that comment about the wife hits me a little close to home. (heh) Cheers, Bert

Actually...Just a little while ago I came across a post to one of the forums that attempts to seriously address the matter of actually making money doing this...But for the life of me I can't remember what forum, subject or poster.

Moshkiae Hi, Panhandle!
Yeah, tell me about it …I went out over to my favorite spot on the I 5 , and you had already beat me to it  Kenny
So he's the one holding the "Will give a movie review for a handout" sign, eh? 
Nahhh ... "I'll trash review your copykat band that has no talent for music" Or "If you wanted anything in music, you would not be playing the same old song"
As a wise Guy once stated from his holy chapala ... none of the hits, none of the time ... prevents you from becoming just another turkey in the middle of all the other turkeys!

As I said before, Cake has made my fortune. I had no need for the above advice. Bapu - perhaps you are interested in the "Get Rich with Sonar Offer". For you, the loyalty price of only $15 US.  Good until 05/01/2014, unless I decide to extend the deadline.

A quick look at what's popular (and making money) seems to tell me those two goals are not necessarily related!

For the entire seven years that I have been a forum member I have hung out in the "technical" board, the one that is currently called "SONAR X Series." This is the first time I have been here, and let me say that you guys have made my day. I thought something was wrong with me because I am not making money in the music/recording business. I know there is a lot of sarcasm in your answers to the OP, but still, thanks for showing some humor and reminding me there is more to life than getting rich. (Lucky for me!)

I make a little off my music on Tunecore...mostly tunes on iTunes.....not much though, hardly pays the hosting costs, maybe a few bucks once in a great while....I used to record other people at my house, but that was always more trouble than it was worth, so I don't bother anymore. They'd come over and eat my food, drink my beer, steal my girlfriends, and want free studio time.... who needs it ?? ....so it's more of a hobby for me than anything else...I really need to get motivated and do some new recordings of my music....
