Re: Music production as a living - does not add up! Any thoughts?

And still, we have no free great movies to watch, do we? No one is expecting the movie to be free, the idea is to pay everyone once it’s in profit. I knew it wasn’t a paid job when the first thing they said was ‘it’s a great script, I’ll send it to you’. I politely said it’s my job and I expect to ...
