Finally! A way for ordinary punters to sell video on iTunes! What took them so long? But the upfront costs are bullshit. Tunecore are great for distributing music. They have a very fair cost structure and ethical terms of service. They've made their reputation by not having bad ToS and costs like so many other companies that'll put your stuff on iTunes. But surely this is nonsense. You don't pay Tunecore an upfront fee like this to distribute a 60 minute album. And there's no reason there should be any more costs in distributing a movie on iTunes than music. Either iTunes are ripping them off, or they're ripping off filmmakers themselves. And 60 or 90 minutes. Really. Come on. Where's the package for distributing short videos? I'm disappointed in Tunecore. I was hoping they'd lead the way in doing what was best for artists.
