CDreview.com, an online distributor of independent music and emerging artists, announced today that any artist that signs up to sell their music or merchandise through CDreview.com, and uses discount code Xtrc5d478 in the month of MAY 2003, will have the $40.00 set up fee waived.

CDreview.com allows musicians to set the sale price of their CD and keep 100% of the profit. While many of the features CDreview.com offers are considered a staple in the online fulfillment business, such as allowing CD sales from the artist’s site and a band product page with all the bells and whistles, it’s the unique band tools and the many ways the company individually promotes each artist that sets CDreview apart from it’s competitors.

Scott Clark, President of CDreview.com, stated: "I always felt that other music fulfillment sites were just happy to stock Independent CDs. Heck, the artists would provide all the free marketing and generate their own sales by referring their fan base to the music fulfillment site. Even worse, the music fulfillment website would charge a fee on each sale that the artist referred. It's a GREAT business plan for them but it's a lousy deal for the artist.

We invite consumers to believe in the magic that is independent music. The music fulfillment companies that do promote themselves, market their website to the public. This invites the public to come and find an "artist in a haystack". We actually target market each band to the public in order to bring the public to our website, via that artist’s product page. It all comes down to working with each artists on a personal level in order to sell music through CDreview.com"

CDreview.com, along with CDreviewNetwork.com, uses its relationships with product vendors, media, subscribers, and street teams in order to provide free, traditional and non-traditional, marketing to each of its artists. Since each artist has its own sound and direction, CDreview.com has created many different methods of marketing based on the many different styles of music that consumers enjoy.

With the winter behind us, many artists will be out and about looking for ways to grow. CDreview.com would like to help those artists by waiving its set up fee and providing an environment where artists can truly grow without paying someone every time a fan buys their CD or merchandise.

For the month of MAY 2003, artist can join the CDreview.com family and avoid paying the $40.00 set up fee simply by using this code. -- Xtrc5d478 --
