This from IUMA as of today....(I continue to recommend them as a good alternative to MP3.$$$)
Dear IUMA Artists,
Just a quick note to tell you we're back! The time has come for a new era in IUMA's indomitable life -- effective April 6, 2001, we've officially re-launched IUMA's artist services! We've re-hired our staff, dusted off the old computers are moving full-speed ahead.
Effective immediately, we are accepting new artists through Artist Uplink; enabling all site functionality such as site stats, charts, bulletin boards and radio IUMA; enabling the IUMA Affiliate network; and bringing back Sue Few's Sound Check, a monthly newsletter with tips on the music industry and how to promote yourself as a new and upcoming artist.
We also owe a big thanks to Vitaminic for stepping in and honoring our artist ad-royalty payments for the December 2000 quarter! You should be receiving your royalty check by no later than May 15, 2001.
