Are you making $$ off your music online?

Hey guys,
I know this is not a song, I am kind of a new user here so excuse me if this is the wrong board for this kind of discussion.
As an unsigned musician I used to find myself scratching my head all the time and wondering how to make money off of my music and monetize my work on the internet. A little over a month ago I found out about SocialMusic.com and was wondering if anybody else was using this platform? I am currently making a few hundred bucks every few weeks off of my fans that enjoy my music and wish to support what I am doing.
I have found a few resources but I was wondering what you all do to monetize your music content online successfully? It would be great to hear some success stories and maybe get a jump start with some tips. I can share strategy and information on how I am banking with Social Music if you guys wish.
Here are the different platforms that I am aware of:
iTunes:
Cons: Requires users to pay for music which they may not be willing to do. Certainly not start up artists.
CDbaby.com
Cons: The amount of musicians active on this website is extremely large, so that CD you are selling for $6 may take a while to get noticed.
Songstall.com
Cons: Not the easiest platform to use, company takes a % off of the total song/album sale.
What do you guys think?

Hey guys,
As an unsigned musician I find myself scratching my head all the time and wondering how to make money off of my music and monetize my work online. I have found a few resources but I was wondering what you all do to monetize your music content online? It would be great to hear some success stories and maybe get a jump start with some tips.
Here are the different platforms that I am aware of:
iTunes:
Pros: Has a lot of the bigger brands and is a well known name.
Cons: Requires users to pay for music which they may not be willing to do. Certainly not start up artists.
Pages.Socialmusic.com:
Pros: Provides artists with a way to monetize their music without asking users or fans to spend any money or do anything uncomfortable. Fans view a short series of ads then proceed to music. Artists are paid each time one of their fans does so.
Cons: Does not have quite as big a name as the others yet.
CDbaby.com
Pros: A simple way for unsigned artists and small labels to begin getting serious profiting off of their work.
Cons: The amount of musicians active on this website is extremely large, so that CD you are selling for $6 may take a while to get noticed.
Songstall.com
Pros: An easy to use on line music shop which allows independent artists to sell their music to their fans and friends.
Cons: Not the easiest platform to use, company takes a % off of the total song/album sale.

Wall stands are the greatest for Guitars/Bass. You can keep your floor space open and your guitars are right there in front of your face all the time
Another tip: PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE!! Watching TV? Practice some scales and keep your hands busy!

Good bass for a beginner?
July 18th, 2011 + 7:07 PM · UnitedEntity
Hey guys,
I am currently looking to get a new bass but I am unsure of what route to go. I am really into the Schecter basses that I have seen, but I was wondering if you guys have any recommendations for something else?
Budget is around $200-$300.
Thanks in advance for any feedback!
