All about alonetone
Why donate to alonetone?
Alonetone is free to use, non-commercial, ad-free and open source. It will always be this way. However, running it does cost money, and some folks have been asking about giving back.
At first I always said "I don't want your money!" and "I want alonetone to be money-free!"....but then I realized some folks really want to help out, to chip in their fare share, and feel some ownership. After all, this isn't only my home. This is your home, and if you want to chip in to the running costs, it's appreciated.

How much does alonetone cost Sudara?
alonetone hosting currently costs $80/month for hosting and about $100/month for delivering the music. So, not too bad, it's around $2,000 a year for hosting.
Additionally, there are the services of our designer, who I try to pay fairly more often than not.
And of course there is my time for support, maintenance and development, which I happily donate because I believe in us having a non-commerical place to share our music.

Will alonetone die a fiery death if I don't donate?
Nope! We're accepting donations primarily because a) people have been asking for it and b) Our costs recently doubled as our hosting is no longer free.
