DMUSIC SUSTAINING MEMBERSHIP ENHANCEMENT DRIVE, FEATURING UNLIMITED UPLOAD PLANS

As many of you know, we spent a lot of time and money last year migrating to new servers, fixing bugs, recovering crashed raid arrays Why, may you ask, do we bother? We are not getting rich from this, and we can't compete in traffic or features with Myspace or Youtube or LastFM, facebook, etc. Well, we believe the mission that we started in 2001, to maintain an independent music community after the demise of mp3.com, is still valid, only more so. Media consolidation is even worse now, and there is no guarantee that even we can survive it. But we continue to try. Survival itself is a strength. We have avoided the VC route so far. I believe thats why we are still here. But it does limit the speed of growth.

Now its time to go to the next stage - to moderize the site by adding the new features that we have spoken about all year - particularly selling downloads, allowing more page customization and adding video. So we have decided, before considering taking on additional investors, is to sell MEMBERSHIPS and MEMBERSHIP ENHANCEMENTS with UNLIMITED STORAGE for music and pictures.

for $150 per year:
For current subscribers, if your purchase a ONE YEAR MEMBERSHIP ENHANCEMENT for $150.00 in addition to your regular subscription, we will take all restrictions off of your account . For one year, you get virtually unlimited storage for music and pictures, and 20 bands or collaborations that you can be in. And if you choose to not renew your sustaining membership, your tunes will stay on your page nevertheless. (You just won't be able to add more until you purchase more storage at a our regular prices). Sustaining members will get all new site enhancements in beta, and get guaranteed front page exposure, AND MORE...
