Yet another Mike
This is not a rehash of the Mastering Fees thread. It's a simple question. If all the small-scale Mastering Engineers are only charging $30-or-so per song, how do they make a living? I'd want to be mastering 40+ songs per week x 50 weeks per year if that's all I was charging and I don't see that as sustainable - there ain't that many musicians out there that want to pay for mastering their stuff. So are these guys just hobbyists doing a few projects a week or do they make a significant income from other music work to pay the bills?
