		<description>[...] Amie Street Sheds Its Barebones Look, Gets Professional with Site Redesign TECHRUNCH Amie Street , the music store that sells songs on a sliding price scale based on how popular they are, has launched a totally revamped website and new features including a new music player and an enhanced recommendation system. We&#8217;ve been big fans since first hearing about them in 2006. Despite Amie Street&#8217;s growing popularity, especially in the indie music scene, the site has long had a somewhat barebones or even amateurish look that was functional but not very visually appealing. The new site is much more professional, with a rotating ‘featured&#8217; panel prominently displaying new releases and promotions, and more intuitive overall design. Source&gt; [...]</description>

		<description>I like the redesign. I like the service.
But what I really want to know is what their revenue is!
I am wildly curious to hear what their numbers are...</description>

		<description>[...] We are huge fans of the site, and thanks Zane for sending us the note. The screen cap below shows off the very cool new changes in the web site, and from all intents and purposes it is also easier to use. Sometimes site redesigns do not go over well, but for amiestreet this one was the right one to do. Sometimes you just have to do the right thing.   New features for the release include a new music library/player that looks very similar to iTunes. Users can access all music that they’ve purchased through Amie Street and stream it from this player free of charge, from any computer. Users can also browse through the music libraries of their peers, though they’ll only be able to listen to brief previews of songs they don’t own (the company hopes to eventually include full song previews, but it sounds like this is still a ways off).

		<description>Congrats to Amie Street, it&#039;s good to see more and more options for musicians to distribute their music on the Internet that aren&#039;t contained to iTunes. Whether or not there will ever be a second fiddle to iTunes is another issue all-together.

I think we&#039;ll see a lot more startups receiving Series B rounds from their previous investors as money gets tighter and VCs need to look to bolster their current investments to guarantee their success.</description>
