The Cosmic Credit team at CDNOW is creating a FREE online community that will help your band:

* Get your digital downloads in front of our 650,000 visitors a day
* Get distributed through CDNOW
* Get connected with other musicians
* Get radio, press and label lists
* Get advice
* Get discounts on gear and CD manufacturing
* GET HEARD!

On October 1, CDNOW is launching the Cosmic Music Network, a one-stop destination where you can get all this and more -- FREE! We want you to be part of our launch. The first 1,000 bands to sign up will be entered to win a feature spot on our homepage -- we'll be selecting a new band each day for the first 30 days.

Sign up starts in a few weeks. We'll email you a URL where you can fill in a promotional page template with:

* Your digital downloads
* Your photos
* Your bio
* Your discography
* Your influences
* Your link to your Web site

If you're interested in the program, e-mail cosmicmail@cdnow.com
We'll keep you informed.
