This Digital Music Download Distribution Agreement is used by a digital music download website (i.e. iTunes, The Orchard) to contract with record labels or artists that own their recordings to sell the music through the website by digital downloads to customers. The contract pays a record label or artist royalties based on a sale of a specific download. The royalty provision would not work with a subscription service (e.g. eMusic). However, most of the contract will and it would just be necessary to change the royalty clause to work for sales through a subscription service. This contract could also be used by a digital only record label to license an existing recording from an artist to distribute by digital downloads.
