I admit, I've never heard of Dommin. However, after reading the description on here about their vocals (I'm heavy into great vocals and harmonies), I'm going to go check them out. See, it does work!

Let them write and collaborate for a year or more to make a TRUE album.. put out a great record that isn't pressured by for instant single iTunes success, and pushed with budget & time constraints. Then maybe you'll have a successful artist and an album people want to buy to enjoy the entire work not just 30 second song clips online. Not many "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road's" "Use Your Illusion's" "Bat Out of Hell's" "Dark Side of the Moon's" etc. etc. being released nowadays (well maybe Re masters I guess)... you get the idea...

Consumers really do not have any clue what they like. And just because something's on their iPod or downloaded on iTunes doesn't necessarily mean people want more more more of this same thing. Maybe ONE Amy Winehouse is enough. The last part is a great point. Consumers really do not have any clue what they like.

These are not enough to fully evaluate a song. They should allow streaming of the whole song. There are some sites like Rhapsody and iLike that offer this service but I believe it should be universal. It would allow the consumers to sample music that they wouldn't normally be exposed to and consumers will buy something if they like it enough. Some people will inevitably take advantage of this but I feel that they are in the minority. I would buy more music not less if I could sample whole songs.

All I want is 30 - 60 seconds of the tune so I can judge for myself. They need to make this front page on their site, (don't make me hunt for it) and NO I'm not going to sign up for an account or give you any information for the privledge of listening to the artist/product you're trying to sell. This isn't rocket science. The South-By-South West Music Festival posts MP3s of most of the artists that perform. I work my way through the list, find who I like and go from there.

Ask a 14 year old, and they will tell you Hannah Montana or maybe a Lindsey Lohan. I completely agree that you can never go to consumers when it comes to musical tastes.
