imeem partners with snocap!
Posted in New Features on Mar 08, 2007 at 8:58 AM by Steve Jang

we're all pretty psyched here at imeem today. we're announcing that imeem has partnered with snocap to enable an ad-supported business model around all the social music activity in our community.

why is this cool_important_significant? well, the partnership lets us make sure that we're keeping users happy and content owners (and artists) happy.

as the community has grown on imeem, we've been working hard on ways to improve how users find and express themselves with each other through their musical, artistic, and pop-cultural tastes. at the same time, we've also been working hard to create a reliable system for content owners and artists to control the availability of their content and also make money off of it.

IMHO, the best way to accomplish that is to offer a share of our online ad revenue to content owners, while also making sure that users can buy downloads of music or video they discover through others on imeem. snocap's id system and content registry, which btw includes almost all of the major and indie label music out there, allows us to do just that.

So after several months of working on this Snocap-enabled system, we are excited to get the word out today and get more labels and artists involved on imeem!
