Technically, you're not making money from music at that point: you're using music to market your t-shirts.

I've heard so many people say that they prefer to support bands via buying t-shirts at shows, but I don't see people wearing band t-shirts very often.  Certainly not local bands.  And t-shirts are a pain in the ass to stock--there's only one size CD, but several sizes of t-shirts.

Until you can digitally download a t-shirt, that will probably
continue to be the main model, imho.
