| − | Yunyu uses the services of several online businesses to sell and share her music. For both physical and digital distribution, Yunyu's business model utilises a number of different music platforms. She has CDs and mp3s available for purchase from US independent distributor, [http://www.cdbaby.com CD Baby]. CDs are also available from the Australian independent store [http://www.earshotmusic.com.au Earshot Music], while paid digital downloads are available from [http://www.itunes.com/store/ iTunes]. Yunyu also offers fans the option of buying CDs directly from her.

| − | As with a number of independent bands, Yunyu uses the services of a company called [http://www.usync.net Usync]. The service provides a 'backstage pass' to paying fans, who can then get access to exclusive content in the 'backstage' area of the Usync website. The service essentially brings ticket sales, music sales, news announcements and other components of a music business model into the one location or interface.

Two of her songs, ''A Prayer'' and ''Lenore's Song,'' are available under this licence as [http://www.yunyu.com.au/home/music#videos streaming music videos]. Whilst her site does not include any downloadable tracks, Yunyu specifies on [http://yunyu.com.au/home/creative-commons/ her webpage] that, though only two of her songs are actually officially under Creative Commons licences, she is happy for any of her work to be used in certain circumstances without payment but with attribution. She acknowledges social projects and amateur productions as acceptable forms of use, and adds that if someone has paid for a copy of her work, what they then do with the work (including file-sharing using services such as P2P) is up to them.

| − | Though unable to provide any accurate statistics on the effects Creative Commons licensing has had on her success, Yunyu cites the availability of ''Lenore's Song'' as having been a big help in increasing her profile. The song is licensed under Creative Commons, as discussed above, and its accompanying music video has seen over 85,000 hits on video-sharing site [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EzSstcvLmYM YouTube]. James Milsom from Creative Commons Australia interviewed Yunyu on 20 April 2008, where she stated that

| − | Yunyu has been pleased with the benefits of Open Content Licensing generally, saying that, ‘It allows podcasters/ indie movie makers/ poor film students/ poor artists etc. to use and share my music easily and without hassle.' This ease of (re)use has proven extremely beneficial for Yunyu, with her work featuring in six different student films, including productions from as far as Belgium and The Netherlands, in addition to multiple placements in podcasts, such as that of the [http://www.coolshite.net 'Coolshite Crew'] and her lyrics being used to teach English to Japanese people. A fan made video to her song [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jC-XkHfSIBc ''Dance So Slowly''] is the icing on the cake.
