Imeem and Snocap Partnership
August 9, 2007 by Jo Minor · Leave a Comment
Social network Imeem and Snocap have officially launched their previously announced
partnership to prevent copyright infringement and pay artists for the songs that people upload and stream to themselves and others.
The pair and over 5,000 independent labels, like Nettwerk and Orchard, will pay artists on Imeem a share of the advertising revenue generated from ads that run along with the music. Artists previously allowed their music to be posted on the service for promotional purposes, but the new partnership provides greater incentives to join. Artists will be paid in proportion to the number of listeners they have with a “to be determined” revenue split with Imeem. It serves as a compliment for Snocap’s other digital store product that helps monetize music downloads.
IMEEM is an online community where artists, fans & friends can promote their content, share their tastes, and discover blogs, photos, music and video.
