Why waste time at Mc Donald's when there are tons of free websites giving the music away for free anyways. For instance http://www.myglobalsound.com has new free music for download every month. I mean Pepsi did it with Apple and they did it right way the first time. In my opinion this Mc Donald's and Sony deal is just not going to work out as expected. I'm not going to buy a big just cause I want free song. Having to collected piece to go to a website and use is no good. The best way is like Apple and Pepsi did it you either win or lose instantly.

Why are people always mad cause musicians try to make a little money? Not every musician can span his or her career 40-50 years. I do agree that corporate America has changed music and made it into something that can be profitable for them. People run around calling artists money-grubbers. What do you expect them to do? That's their occupation. I would think you'd want to be successful at your career too. If you don't like what you hear on the radio, at the store or on TV there are alternatives http://www.myglobalsound.com/ . There are artists that try to make it with the record labels but they can't do it if they don't get the support of their fans or if people that complain about it don't make an effort to seek out an alternative.

I use Mp3Split on my website http://www.myglobalsound.com and it's great. I use it to allow users to upload their music to my site. When a user uploads a track it gives them the choice of choosing which 40 seconds of the track should be streamed. It works great. Linux and PHP is a killer combo.

Though we are relatively new we do provide an alternative and the music that we sell can hold it's own against pop music. We did take a different approach to the single sells one step farther because we will make the CD and mail them to you or you can choose to download the tracks. Check it out and get some free music while your there http://www.myglobalsound.com If you check out the site, you can see that we are not just out to make a profit we really are helping artist get on there feet. We're just some linux and php geeks flinging poo at each other.

I'm the president of http://www.MyGlobalSound.com and some people had some negative things to say about my company. I would like start off by saying you try doing the same thing with a $5,000 budget and a team of two. We recently launched in March and i know that in do time we will become a force to be reckoned with. I think the people that post on this forum should revisit their childhood before the start posting things If you don't have anythign respectable to say thing keep your mouth shout. If you pride yourself on making people feel little that only shows how big of a person you are.

This should pretty much cover your apetite for music. Take a look and I think you'll like what you see.

I think we're going to see a lot more sites like MyGlobalSound.com popping up on the web. What they're working for is a streamlined indie music exchange system, where 'new' artists can get their exposure without corporate backing. It is a great new promotions, sales, and resources platform for musicians. MP3.com once held a great position here, but has since been wiped, and this is the best replacement I've found. I think features like the War Room, My City, and Hit the Globe are way ahead of the curve.
