After months of work the www.hypster.com download store has been launched. This store features all four major US recording labels plus a ton of indies.
That means if you are looking for music you can type it in and probably find the artist you are looking for. There are over 2 million tracks.
For now you have to pay with a US card or paypal account. The Canadian storefront should be launched in the new year (The Canadian Music industry needs to make life easier for artists and online proprietors they are soooo far behind but thats another topic.) Apparently there is a way to "trick" the system by paying with paypal but I dont know it yet so stay tuned.
If you are an unsigned or indie artist and are looking for a storefront and marketing tools drop me a line michael@burnedmusic.com We are looking to help unsigned artists promote and sell their music.
Otherwise check it out. For as little as $0.99 you can try us out-- and not worry about the music cops hunting you down adn accusing you of music piracy.
You can also prepay for music buying PassAlong Points to get a 10% discount or recommend (Pass) songs to your friends via IM or email and you will earn PassAlong points for the referral when they buy what you recommended.
If you have any promotional concepts also let me know as we are launching some marketing programs that will benefit listeners, bands and marketers alike.
