Don't take this the wrong way, but the last time someone asked me something like this, they worked for Atlantic Records and wanted to tack an intro onto a few of my songs and then put their name on it in front of mine and publish it. They also sent me the release forms to sign before any publishing contract.

I had my attorney write them a very nice letter.

nice

I'm not saying this site is good or bad. I'm just saying I hate URL's that look like that, and sure enough the link lands on a forwarder. Then I stopped investigating.
Not judging, just don't care, if it starts jumping me around the internet I ain't interested.
Build a page if you want visitors, and name it! You didn't even bother with the link text in the UBB code to make the link look better. Fine intern you are.

web-sniffer.net is your friend, if you can read html code at all.
Again, the site may be good, but I don't want to have to start chasing it to find out.

From his profile, "I'm a huge fan of music but still pretty new to the whole scene."
If this is a real student, he's being used by someone else to scam artists.
If I'm wrong about this, it won't the first time and it won't be the last.

Wayne,

But I'd be surprised.

By 'he' do you mean a person, or bot?

Hmmm.... well, yesterday he couldn't upload his avatar.... I still don't know what that means... just sayin'....

Oh, and as far as the post... I once sat in a movie theater and watched a song I wrote play over the closing credits with someone else's name on it. Nothing leaves my house until I have copyrights now.

He may be, but if I was starting a new music collab site called Notethrower.com, the link would not be called youtu.be/PY2jW56o1Zo,
it would be notethrower.com

Thanks jford.
I am much like the author of that article; hate these services. And if you are going to start bouncing me; I'm not playing.

Plus this article says that this site will only host videos .. not web sites. Quote-
"and they’re claiming that it will only function for YouTube video links—meaning you can’t get tricked by spammers disguising a link"

How'd that work so far? I think there may be a Spammer disquising a link above.

FWIW, the post's tag line (his personal songs) leads to notethrower.com

Like I said, I wasn't judging the site.
I was actually letting him know he would be much more successful if he didn't bounce people around and gave an honest link.
If you want me to check out notethrower.com, no problem; just give me a link to notethrower, not some cryptic forwarding site. Once the bouncing starts your browser follows .. to wherever they want you to go. Sorry, I'm not that trusting. I like to choose where I go.

Lawyers have instructed me not to reveal that due to further damage that I could do.

Remember from my posts that I am not a shrinking violet and I have a wicked sense of humor. Also remember that a wicked sense of humor turned bitter can be quite vicious. Some things went down about this that I am fairly sure a judge and his bailiff still laugh about often.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
