Misty Mountains Erhu Video

Considering learning erhu, and listening to a lot of various recordings/videos, found one that used four of my clips ...

Nice!

Let me please understand. He has spent $628 just for buying your clips.
How is he going to recover his cost?

Nice work Gene!

Almost 90,000 views so far, easily will make a big profit from YouTube.

Great nature footage Gene.

Well, 90k views will be about $90 in four years (since 2013) so I don't know about big profit here... But who says you need to make money/recover costs with art?

Thanks for nice comments. Not even sure those old sales came from here. And if they did the prices might have been lower back then. And I'm not sure if I like the implication that I should feel guilty about my pricing .. it's a free market .. buyers can choose to buy or not, especially as those clips are of a type that is quite common ... (not that mine aren't the absolute top notch best ever ;-) !) I cannot take responsibility for worrying about the bottom line and business model of the people who pay money for my clips, just like the gear companies cannot worry about whether I'll ever make my ROI on teh stuff I buy from them.

Just happy to see my nature clips used artistically. Not that commercial purpose is not art in itself ... man I dunno I should just shut up.

Gene, sorry, I did not mean to cause any guilt feeling. Keep doing the things that make you prosper.

No worries.

Thanks.

Great stuff Gene!

Don - 90,000 views on Youtube isn't going to earn you much at all these days...

Thanks James!
