5. Why This is a Zero-Inventory Royalty Stream

Part 7 • ElasticStage Revenue-Share Model

The "zero-inventory royalty stream" is the cornerstone of this model. You are earning money from each sale without ever having to buy or hold any physical stock. This completely de-risks physical media. You can offer vinyl and CDs to your fans and know that every sale will generate a predictable royalty for you, without any upfront capital tied up in unsold units. This transforms physical media from a potential liability into a guaranteed asset.
