Releasing an EP

[Freaky Fender]

Ok. I intend to release an EP of my music. I've got the tracklisting, and the way I'm working it is that I send them the CD-R, they can add their own cover art. With this, I need to bring up the question


Should I charge for the CDs?

I love the idea of sending people my music free of charge, but I would like to send them in jewel cases, plus, shipping costs might be a lot...

Any ideas?

If you charge for shipping and cost of materials, it will still be cheaper than most EPs. If it's just to cover cost then you're completely justified in doing so.
