I guess it's a cool idea...? 2. ...but releasing exclusively to an already exclusive tracker... isn't that counter intuitive if you're seeking exposure and growth as a new label/artist?? 3. meh? ...it probably doesn't matter either way based on the marginal (if even honorably mentionable) success that net labels and 'artist collectives' tend to yield.... BUT then out of nerdy curiosity, I filtered a torrent search in the indie genre (as they are, in truest form, indie) to see how their snatch and seed count measured up against like uploads and was pretty stunned to find that they rival the likes of Radiohead's 'OK Computer'--arguably, (or not so arguably IMO) one of the best albums of our time! And yes, that can probably be attributed to the fact that most of us already owned OKC (if you were conscious in the 90's) and that it's a ratio-bump being freeleech, BUT at 3.8k snatches and a solid 2k seeders(!)...it's a pretty remarkable feat for a band no one has ever heard of! Not to mention this is a release that just posted to the tracker on the 24th... it's really crazy if you stop to think about it (at least I think so). So yeah, maybe the people who snatched for a ratio fluff will never even listen to the damn thing, but who knows? But when, to a no-name band, just packing a tiny dive bar is an accomplishment, getting your music to the ears of potentially 3,000+ people in less than a week is pretty flippin great! I'm sure that what.cd is also a hub of music snobs (myself included) and the likelihood that one of those snobs might write for a snobby music blog that (despite occasional pretentiousness) might be a tastemaker in the world of indie music is not all that unimaginable. So, if something good tickles their ears that otherwise would go completely un-noticed who knows what exposure could lead to more exposure? And plain old word of mouth is nothing to dismiss....any publicity is good publicity, right? I just think it's an interesting new branch on the marketing tree and hopefully, it's an outlet that will actually put even more pressure on 'net labels' to find truly great bands and on bands to be truly great... because if you're goiing to give away your music for free, it better be good enough to bring the people to the shows (where the actual money is made). This could be a brilliant idea or could fail miserably, but the music is getting to the people and in the end, that's what it's about! That's just my thought--I'm a TF posting virgin...or was--so not here to tear apart ideas (or be torn apart).... I'm just that overly geeky about music :) I have to agree with lymph3's immediate and extended family… when I first read the announcement on the site, I thought (in ~ the order that follows):
