• There was an email that went out recently about a website called American Idol Underground (http://www.idolunderground.com/Pages/Welcome.aspx) offering a free trial account to CD Baby artists who have digital distribtuion. Apparently according to several members, the contract you sign basically gives up all the rights to your music. There's a warning message posted here for anybody who hasn't read it.

• There's another site called Raw42 (http://www.raw42.com/) that supposedly deals in licensing music to tv/film companies. However, despite writing to them over a two week period using three different emails, I can't seem to get any reply from them. This is after having my songs listed with them for over a year. In fact the only contact I've had from them in the last year has been a rude and obnoxious comment from their so called A&R person, for accidentally submitting the same song twice.
Not sure what the deal is with these guys but I definitely don't trust people who ignore my emails and act beligerently to their clients.
I've tried removing my songs from their site several times, but they're still being listed so now I'm going the legal route.
