***Corrected bandcamp payout as I had made a silly mistake.
From this point on there will be no more contributions from streaming payouts as I’ve stopped streaming for moral/ethical reasons.
2024 07 21 - €50.02
First payment to charity, from streaming and bandcamp.
Streaming - Stopped IN 2023 at €17.58
2023 - I’m at over 7,000 streams and made €10.08. That’s 0.0014 per stream - and my songs are an average of 5:50 minutes, so that’s €0.00024138 per minute of music.
Very fucking sad.
Tax disclaimer
Germany allows €410 untaxed income per year from non-primary employment, and I am still below this. So, I will not be paying taxes on what is already a ridiculously low sum, that is going to charity anyway.
