We've helped dozens of independent musicians and game designers offer up their hard work in the form of a digital download in return for a donation. In fact, a majority of these providers offer a "pay-what-you-want" model that allow their fans and customers to pay what they can afford in return for an instant download.

Why Sell Files for Donation?

While a majority of these donations are for a minimum sum (0.01), many still are substantial payments that can make up for the lower sums. This often results in an appealing average price. In the end, not only does the content producer receive a little compensation for customers that would otherwise leave, they also get the goodwill and the patronage of future, repeat customers.

On the other side, the customer gets the product at a price they can afford. The leave happy and are likely to tell others and spread the good word about deal they got.

Win-win is a little cliche, but I believe it is appropriate.
