I think having your own website is a good thing but the only problem I see is getting traffic to it.At least with some of these companies you do get a much better chance of getting your music heard by a lot more people.

Wayne,

You say, "a better chance of getting your music heard by a lot more people" . . . I see your point but don't forget if you want "specific" traffic you will still have to do some sort of campaign to drive traffic to your music. For instance I would recommend starting an email or regular mail campaign to prospective clients, clubs, corporate planners, record execs etc, depending on just who you want to hear your music. If it is just the general public maybe sites like Face book would be the best bet as they seem to be gaining in popularity by the day.

With this said, the biggest advantage I see in having your own site is that after you get your target audience to your site they are looking and listening to "only" you and don't have one-click access to the thousands of other musicians sharing the same "stage/site" so to speak.

If you just want a place to have a few tunes up where you can direct friends etc. all of the sites like the one you are leaning to should fill your needs quite well. I guess it all depends on if you are selling, and if you are what you are selling and who you want to sell it to. (The old whiskey salesman in me just won't go away)

Best of luck to ya!

Edited correct name I replyed to Frankie when it should have been Wayne . . . Sorry bout dat.
