Best Answer

There are many factors that determine how much a band makes from a cd. The contract, the sales, the amount of money spent by the label to market the cd, did the band produce the album or produce, write any of the songs. The amount of and cost of Music Videos. Also how many guest stars appear on the album or in the videos.

They band gets 20% profit from the CD because some of the money goes to the band itself but then some of it goes to who ever is selling and and everyone else who helped sell the CD.

The answer depends on who produces and distributes the CD.

When you record it, press it, package it and sell it at your gig dates, you are paid 100% of the sale amount, minus your expenses.

When you have a contract with a 'record label', your contract specifies your 'cut' of each sale, or you may earn a fixed amount. In this situation, the record label produces the CD, packages it, markets it, distributes it and so forth, to get the CD into your fans' hands.

If you also composed the music and own rights to it, you can be paid a royalty each time it's 'covered' by another singer, or when your song is used in a movie soundtrack, or in some cases, each time it's played over the radio waves.
