MP3.com Saga

Unfortunately, it has become apparent to us that mp3.com does not care at all about the artists. They only care about the investors. Therefore, we have pulled all our music off of mp3.com and have written a song explaining why. We are urging other bands to take the same action. Our song is temporarily available at http://fma.addr.com/chuckles/pulledAllMySongsOffMp3com.mp3. We don't expect that mp3.com will ever approve the song.

Here is a list of bands that have joined us:
Binary Test Record
Cry For Life
E-mail us if you too have pulled your songs and we will add you to the list!


Well, I pulled all my songs off of mp3.com
there was nothing else that I could do
Their service has declined and it just
blows my mind that something could suck
so much that used to be so cool

The first problem, way back when
was when I wrote a song about religion
they said it didn't fit with their idea of religious
because it wasn't Christian

then they tried to move away from DIY
major label music, going to court for the rights
giving all that money to their enemies from the start
the major labels and corporate art

to cover all these debts they had to take away
service from the little guys no more free pay for play
now this wouldn't bother me if they'd just admit
that they really plan to phase out all their free service

I posted a song with an appropriate name
they said I couldn't use that title, because "it's not allowed to game"
what the hell that means, they never would say
and oddly 5 other songs have that same title still today
what's even worse is that they didn't tell me what's wrong
they just went and blocked downloads of my song
it took them two weeks to respond to my e-mail asking why
if this is the treatment I get, I'd rather not even try 

and now it takes a month for an unpaid song to get approved
when it used to take a day or two
Even worse is my experience with the DAM CD
I pulled all mine off, don't want them making money off of me
It still showed as for sale on my site for 3 weeks long
I emailed, no response, finally, I deleted every song

So I bet they won't post this song, but that is ok
I will post it all over to get the word out today
that mp3.com has the investor in mind
who cares about the artists?
they are just a dime a dozen
