GET YOUR MUSIC UP ON ITUNES FOR FREE!!!

[XxRx]

WaTunes.com, the new music & entertainment social networking service, today announced the launch of the WaTunes Music Group (WTMG) at: http://www.watunes.com. WaTunes Music Group is a digital music distribution network that enables music artists and recording labels to sell and distribute their music to over 100 music stores such as iTunes, Napster, Rhapsody, eMusic, Sony Connect, Zune, Yahoo!, and many other music retailers and mobile services for free.

As a WaTunes.com member, music artists and labels can sell their music by logging in to their WaTunes.com account and choosing the new WTMG Panel. The WTMG Panel provides unique tools such as: UPC Generation, Sales Manager, Available Stores, and Customer Support. Music artists and labels contact support to have their WTMG Account setup, which allows them to upload their contents via FTP. Music artists then watch as their music is live at the music stores and earn their sales every month.

DarkGlobe Records CEO Stefan Lane (also known as Styk Shift) says "WaTunes will get plenty of business from me as well as the bringing of others. I plan on DarkGlobe Records to grow thanks to WaTunes". Styk Shift's music is currently available on iTunes, Napster, Rhapsody, and Sony Connect with his first debut album Electronic Addiction.

WaTunes.com Founder and CEO Kevin Rivers say, “WaTunes is a place where everyone can freely connect, share, listen, and sell their music and media contents to the world. I am pleased that we can now provide digital content delivery for independent music artists and recording labels that’ll make their music expand on a global scale.”

Apart from WaTunes Music Group services, WaTunes.com is a place for fans to connect and meet new friends, family, co-workers, music artists, and recording labels. As a member of WaTunes.com, fans are able to customize their own profile, post blogs, comments, and messages, instant messaging, chat, post in the message boards, upload any widget such as iMeem, YouTube, Mashable.com, and many other widgets and flash contents to their profiles, listen to the radio via TuneFM, create photo albums, and buy music from their favorite music artists.

With a unique combination of digital music distribution, social networking, and digital media, WaTunes.com has truly become a place where people can freely connect, share, and listen to music and other media platforms, and a place where music artists and recording labels can expand their music with the new WaTunes Music Group digital music distribution network.

What is their policy on distributing dubs/remixes/material that may include samples or loops from previously copywrited materials? What about copywrites in general--does the music they distribute have to have been copywritten? I looked, but there wasn't anything in the general/pre-sign-up FAQ.

Edit: Found this in the About Us...seems the answer to my question is yes.

WaTunes LIVE

WaTunes LIVE is the new online music player application that enables music artists, DJs, labels, and even other distributors to upload and sell their music, host their mix sets and playlist, and provide more promotions for their music. WaTunes LIVE is setup as a music store, playlist, and widget that creates an interactive enviroment for fans to copy and paste LIVE on their favorite websites, blogs, and profiles to help promote their favorite music artists.
