I guess it's how you view it - we made a comp 7'' in 96 and made 500 copies and barely sold any except to our friends since we didnt really know how to get them in stores. I still have a bunch. If you can get distribution or know that you can make your money back, go for it.
On the plus side, we had 4 bands, so it was pretty cheap with all the people splitting the cost.
We may make a split sometime or a comp again since we'd probably have better luck selling them now that we play a lot of shows and stuff.
