Soundcloud-Nutzer können jetzt mittels einer Verknüpfung von SoundCloud mit SoundRain ihre Tracks leicht(er) verkaufen:
The result is an interface that allows music creators to connect their SoundCloud account with SoundRain which enables the creators to select which tracks they wish to sell for a one-off payment of 99 cents per download.Once a track is enabled for purchase, a ‘Buy with Minno’ link appears on the waveform player which takes the buyer directly to SoundRain, where they can buy the song using Minno in just one click. When sales reach $10, SoundRain delivers artists their earnings via PayPal and then continues to do so in $10 increments, unless the artist chooses otherwise.
SoundRain wurde auf dem Music Hack Day in San Francisco vor einer Woche gebaut und setzt auf das im Januar 2011 gestartete Micropayment-System Minno auf, das auch hinter SoundRain steckt.
