There is probably no one in the record business who has
not burned his or her fingers in a "flat fee or royalty" deal.
I know that I have - many times. But you have to do what
you feel might be right/best. In many cases, the budget
is so tight, that unless people were to show their faith in
what they were doing by accepting a percentage in place
of a fee, then the record would never get made.

Cordially,
