There are a million digital music stores out there, and Amie Street has successfully broken through with an incredibly unique concept that seriously rocks.
Get this:
- New songs uploaded by unsigned & indie artists start out at a price of $0.00. (Thereby encouraging people to visit the site.)
- As the song gets purchased by more fans, the mp3’s price increases up to a max of $0.98. (Thereby encouraging artists to promote it like crazy.)
- If you’re the first to find a song before it goes up in price, you get credit towards more songs. (Thereby encouraging everyone to try and listen to new stuff as much as possible.)
Artists get heard, and music lovers get cheap music plus the thrill of the "hunt". How sweet is that?
UPDATE: I just bought my first song, "Some One Turning" by Arctic, for $0.16. Nice.
