I'd like to see it personally, at least. :)

Neither is required, but the purpose of using a service like mixonic is so 
nobody has to deal with logistics.  They handle burning and shipping the CD 
and packaging.  Of course, that means surrendering a certain amount of 
control over the burning and packaging, but considering what you get it looks 
like a pretty good service.  mind you, I haven't actually used them for 
anything yet...

As for registration, I'm assuming you're referring to getting some sort of 
business license (non-profit or otherwise), that might become necessary at 
some point, but not as far as I know.  Useful if you want to open a bank 
account, but I've recently learned that just collecting money isn't always a 
reason to get formally organized with the government. I'll ask my accountant 
next time I talk to him what the tax implications of such a thing are, unless 
there's someone here who already knows?  :)
