Hitlantis.com is the World's Most Generous Band SiteDUBLIN, May 21, 2010 (PR Newswire Europe via COMTEX) -- According to a Study Conducted in England According to a recent English survey, Hitlantis, which last autumn launched a new era in online music services, is the world's most generous band site. Hitlantis gives its bands as much as 90 per cent of the revenue from music sold, which is quite in a category of its own compared to other players in the business. The online income received by performers was investigated in England extensively from numerous sources. The study can be read at http://www.informationisbeautiful.net/2010/how-much-do-music-artists-earn-online/ and all the source material at http://bit.ly/DigitalRoyalty (Due to the length of this URL, it may be necessary to copy and paste this hyperlink into your Internet browser's URL address field.

"According to this study, Hitlantis is the world's best and most generous service for artists," is how Hitlantis' Managing Director Marcus Tilgmann sums up the result of the study. "Comparing Hitlantis, dubbed the Spotify of indie music, to its 'model' is flattering, since as many as 1.6 million monthly plays is the requirement for paying the remuneration of about 200 euro - and not even Lady Gaga achieves that," is Tilgmann's comparison. Heading for success in Asia Hitlantis is experiencing a period of intense international growth especially in Asia and has recently also attracted the attention of international media. For example, CBS and CNBC have reported in the United States about the new and unique music community, calling it the most interesting music service in the world right now. "We are really glad about this, of course, and we see great potential for the next big band to be from Asia," Tilgmann says. Hitlantis is a new music community and service, bringing together music makers and consumers not only in the virtual world, but also in real life. Hitlantis aims to get 125,000 bands and 1,25 million users on its site by the end of 2010. User-friendly Hitlantis passes on to groups as much as 90 per cent of the revenue from music sold.
