Re: [microsound] confusion is next



I wonder how much New Order got to do the sunkist commercial? 

Where does one draw the line at selling out.. there's a big difference
between being paid to do a commercial versus joing a website community.

Please elaborate on the many ways one can grow there music and avoid
myspace. To be fair it's needs to be free and a somewhat built in way
to promote or attract people to listen to your stuff.
