For digital sales they take a 9% cut from sales generated through iTunes and Amazon, the 15% is for selling the downloads direct from them. Most of my sales have been through Amazon, a few through iTunes, only one direct from CDBaby. And mostly these days it is streams, not downloads. Not much money to be made from a stream :P $.0078 for an iTunes stream, less from some of the others.

The big cost is getting it up there in the first place, $49 for a CD, $9.95 for a single, although they have sales a couple of times a year.

Hope this helps!

Dave
