Because by voting your favorite band helps them to produce their music.

WHERE DOES MY MONEY GO?

€5 VOTE

1. 23% vat (€1)

2. DVD expenses (€1)

3. Band's piggy-bank (€3)

IS FABRICAUDIO MAKING ANY MONEY FROM THIS?

1. We only get paid for the cost of the live music video clip production.

2. We don't make any money from the DVD. The €1 charge covers only the costs of duplication and printing.

3. The band's piggy-bank is only used by the band in order to pay for the production of their music.

1. The PIGGY BANK is under a FABRICAUDIO account.

2. The piggy-bank can only be used by the band.

WHAT IF A BAND DROPS OUT?

You can redirect your vote (piggy-bank) to another band that you like.

HOW MANY TIMES CAN I VOTE?

As many times as you like. The more votes, the more money you add to the band's piggy-bank and the more DVDs you get.

HOW MANY BANDS CAN I VOTE?

ARE THE DVDs FOR SALE?

No.

You only get the DVD if you vote. The bands own their music video clip copyrights so we cannot sell and make money from something that we don't own. If you want to get the DVD, you can always vote for a band that you like.

WHEN WILL THE DVD BE READY?

The voting ends in December 2011. When the results are finalized, only then, the production of the DVD will commence.
