Well, "many" musicians making "most" of their money off ad rights is not unfeasible. I have it from a pretty infallible source that RykoDisc made 1 million dollars licensing a Galaxie 500 track to Acura. One. Million. Dollars. (He also said this was pretty funny because: When Rough Trade went under all their assests went to public auction. This included the rights to all the Galaxie 500 stuff. So, the former members of Galaxie 500 flew to England to bid. They were so unknown that the price never got above a few hundred dollars. Dean Wareham paid cash.) ObIdm: Anyone know how much Aphex got for those telecomm ads or whatever they were, for which he did special mixes? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
