Why should I pay for yours?". I said, > well, you're free NOT to use it then, and walked away. You did correct so, as he doesn't seemed to be interested in your music and would replace it with anything. That is not the kind of feedback a serious musician is interested in, it probably corresponds to the quality of his arb (read arbitrary, or "not art"... ;-). Art is about making decisions... "we're only in it for the money..."... I would always ask roughly for the same hourly rate as the whole project is earning. It might be little in the end, but it would be fair. Its simply a question of respect. For a given project everybody contributing has an importance directly proportional to the amount of work put in. To nothing else... (supporting a project with money is also time spent to collect this money...) But this is what Marx told us already more than 150 years ago... ;-) In the end its our own responsibility to insist on this respect...
