Thread: 'Pay per Song' web direction needed.

I am a novice at web design and need guidance please.

My question is not for my site, but for a webpage I have been asked to design for somebody (using their soon to be purchased subscription to BV) for the intent to post and sell his music.

I have the page design in mind but I am stalled when it comes to how to set up 'music download after payment'.

There are 3 CDs with apprx. 45 minutes of music (4 to 9 songs) per CD. I wish to be able to have a visitor hear a 30 second sample of music, be able to choose and purchase (thru PayPal), and then be able to download to their computer after payment.

Is there a special application I should be using or Tutorial I can watch to assist me with this? Someone told me I would need to upload all the music individually to the Host Server. . . ? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Well soho or one of the shopping carts would probably be better for this, and if you dont use them, you will as a minimum need to purchase downloader protection software which HIDES your url after its been downloaded so they cant just GIVE It away to buddies or accidently find it on a search thru your site.

uploading can be done via blue ftp, or cpanel file manager.. or anyother ftp client of your choice.

Thank you, Karen. I'll look into soho.

Navaldesign has a little script that he has written with a shopping button for this as well.. you might try contacting him and looking into this as well.

Thank you, I'll give him a shout.
I downloaded Soholaunch BUT I am afraid to use it because it says in order to get into its CP in need to re-activate my BV. When trying to re-activate my BV I was told that I will loose my existing website and everything I've done previously and I don't want that to happen. :(
I am assuming that it's an either / or kind of deal.
Thanks for your help.
Bummed but optimistic.
Peace out.
