A bit later than usual (my son got born and we moved to live in Chile in the past 5 weeks). Also good news for the affiliate fees as it topped again in November and we’re getting close to $1000 a month. In November the total was $977 helped by a significant increase by Banshee affiliate fees that reached $628.

Amazon in the meantime opened two other international stores in Italy and China. So there are more revenue opportunities out there.

Affiliate fees are still growing. October brought in record $823 . A very nice increase from the previous record of $635.

Banshee MP3 sales really kicked in (I guess because of recent distribution releases). Banshee MP3 download affiliate fees doubled from $218 to $448.

August has been a record month for the affiliate fees that the GNOME Foundation received!!!! In total approximately $500 has been received from the different stores.

The change compared to last month ($231 in total) is for large part due to the fact that Banshee now has the option to buy MP3 files from Amazon. Through MP3 purchases of Banshee users $175 of affiliate fees were generated. Since the Amazon store is only present in a development version of Banshee I expect we’ll see much higher revenues when 1.8.0 gets released and gets packaged for the major distributions. Hopefully the distributions will not change the affiliate tag to their own.

Hopefully somebody will also add the Amazon MP3 store this into Rhythmbox.
