- I do not understand how PayPal works.
PayPal is among the most secure in the world -- more secure than plain VISA/Mastercard, because they verify each customer's bank account first, rather than just merely taking their name and numeric code.
Sign Up for PayPal is simple. Go to MuSeeks.com "Artist Login", and enter your login area. "Create a new Artist Page", and look for the PayPal link there to get started.
PayPal will deposit around $1.50 into your bank account. You will then verify back to them if it worked. If everything works OK, then PayPal will list you as a "Verified" Business member, and will allow you to start accepting VISA, MASTERCARD, American Express, Discover , and more.
You should also register for a "Personal" PayPal account (with a different email), which accepts only electronic checks (not VISA+). This is so you can user your Personal Account to test purchases from your Business Account.

Does it cost an additional fee to transfer the money from PayPal on to my banking account in Germany?
All money for your sales is kept in your PayPal accounts. You can transfer the moneys to your bank account any time, by logging into your PayPal account online, and clicking any of these options:
1) Electronic Transfer to your bank (free, but 3-4 days)
2) Have paypal mail you a printed check
3) Withdraw from your PayPal ATM card (instantly, but you must request an ATM card in advance)
4) more...

Okay, you can re-encode your mp3 files at a lower bit rate (24 to 60kbps) and it should fit. You can sell those too. Just try it.
