Lonely girl videos are such a waste of time. I feel so sorry for people caught up in your little soapbox.

I want to congratulate AmieStreet on this great accomplishment. We made a deal with them a few months ago that allows us to use featured artists from AmieStreet in lonelygirl15 videos. I know that the musicians we have been in touch with and the fans on our site that have legally downloaded the music are all grateful for AmieSteet. Congrats!

This is a cool site. Just registered. There are a lot of good artists on here. I’m very surprised not to see crap from wanna bes.

Just bought my very, very first MP3. Love the site and looking forward to browsing it further.

@You can’t be serious: if you’ve already done the number-crunching about Sellaband, why not indulge us?

For those who support the artists there is no other risk than that maybe they bought to many records, but they get a physical CD for every part invested. The funds are put in an escrow account, and can be withdrawn at any point up until the artist reaches the goal.

For the artists, yes, if they raise the money to record, print and publish an album themselves they might earn more than doing it through SAB. Or might not. In any case, they join because they can’t get those funds/that contract otherwise. Per CD sold the SAB artists get more than an ordinary release on a record company.

Awesome, I love Barenaked Ladies, Master P, Romeo and the Meat Puppets…I’ve looked at the terms of service of sellaband…doesn’t really appear to be a sham as long as the band themselves know what’s going on.

Make sure you read their privacy policy… It was not something I could agree too.

"You Can't Be Serious": I'm sorry but I completely disagree. I'm a SellABand artist, I've read the fine print, and I don't feel in any way to being ripped off. Also, there are already two bands there that already released albums, and both of them don't feel like they were ripped off. Can you at least support your oppinion?

I’m sorry, did you guys say sellaband.com? Next time, before promoting sites that rip-off naive artists and the easily dupable youth that support them, how about going through their terms and conditions? sellaband is a sham, read the fine print and crunch some numbers before promoting services just because they are different.

Happy b-day Amie!
