can a musician sell music on a wordpress.com blog

the topic says it all, can a musician sell music in any way on a free wordpress.com hosted blog?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

It’s fine to link to a sales page for something you made yourself, as long as your blog is a real blog.

That page mentions Etsy, but the same principle applies to an author linking to a store that sells their book, or a musician linking to a music store.
WordPress.com doesn’t have e-commerce/checkout functions however, so you’ll need to use another service to handle the sales part.

Authors and artists and artisans are allowed to sell their own creations at wordpress.com but you’re not allowed to resell anything if you didn’t make it yourself. Also there are no ecommerce shopping carts at wordpress.com do if you need that you’ll want wordpress.ORG instead.

Ok, I appreciate your responses. Just to be clear, if there was a wordpress plugin for a shopping cart of somekind maybe going through paypal or something, wordpress.com has no restriction if the material is yours. Is there a free way to set that up? Thanks again.

We only support the donate button; http://support.wordpress.com/paypal/ So you’d need to handle the sales themselves elsewhere.

If what you’re looking for is to set up an ecommerce website, this is DEFINITELY not the place. You can use an independent install of WP.org software though. Get the details at http://wordpress.org
