Looks like another band camp type thingy?

Hi bin

Yeah - they're fairly new - think it was tone that had a post about them last fall.
So I joined - seems a bit more like Taxi than Bandcamp, but because it's so new there are very few placement requests and they don't typically look like ones I have material for. I think this will be great once they build a reputation and get more opps to bid on. And there are no so-called "Taxi experts" standing in the way of bidding.

cheers
Paul

That is not necessarily a good thing IMHO!

If anyone can apply I can't really see "the industry" using this approach as it would be no different from just taking unsolicited submissions

I think the reason TAXI get so many listings is that they do a lot of the "donkey work" by screening the submissions before passing them on to "the industry"

Is this the same thing like what they offer at SongU.com?
