New Places For JRiver To Drum Up Customers
« on: March 31, 2002, 02:02:44 am »

sorry, but didn't see the old thread . . .

http://www.adoptaband.com/index.htx

They have a Real One logo, but no other Jukebox Icons for programs to play their (legit) mp3's.

FAQ excerpts:

Q: What is this site about?
A: The name should make it clear. Adopt A Band. You come, listen to the bands, maybe there's one that you already know or another that you like. They'll give to you their music for free, and in exchange you "adopt" them, sending - if you want - how much you want to them. No, you will not find those hot Britney's songs here. Try somewhere else...

Q: Who are you, anyway?
A: Regular folks, with a taste for original music and a lot of distaste for commercial products.

Q: Why is there a need for another mp3 site?
A: This is not an mp3 site. Sorry about that. Songs are in an mp3 format because they are meant to be un-crippled and free. There is no commonality other than that. We care about changing the way you think of music, not of being another place to download free stuff.

Q: I've already downloaded all your files. Why should I pay?
A: You don't have to. It's just up to you to decide if you can do something for them to keep doing their work or if you don't care. Hopefully somebody else will, right?


Julia Macklin is great, and the only artist There that I've heard of -- she's working with members of the now defunkt October Project.

A site for indie artists, and they have a page called "get a player" but all that's listed there is the Windows Media Player and Quick Time

How many have their own home page with a plug for MJ? Can't beat the cost of an ad on these sites. Next Page

Mine.

I've been meaning to comment on your web page--looks great! I gave it a shot . . . once . . . a couple of years back . . . not as patient as you.

I cheated and used Globalscapes CuteSite builder. Takes a while to get things how you want them, but it is a whole lot easier then trying to handcode! Thanks for the good review. Next Page

My wife says I need to update it with a picture of me. I just don't want to scare anyone that visits, or get complaints about cracked monitors. har har

It was working earlier--did you add that photo? No, I see that you still haven't.

Every time the camera gets pointed at me the lens falls out. Looking for the duct tape now.

Perhaps because of the badgering from internal sources, and external, the deed has been done. As a suggestion for your own safety, keep large tumbler nearby. heh heh

looked at photo . . . um, are you sure that's you? That's the photo in a picture frame that I just bought. Or was it the photo on the back of that XXX movie that I just returned? Or was it hanging in the post office this morning? Milk carton? I just know that I've seen that photo somewhere.
