Please ping me personally on my email and I'll be happy to connect you with the right people. More often than not, these matters are simple communication issues that can be resolved. Even though I don't work there anymore, I'd be thrilled

I used to work for Grooveshark and your accusations are pretty unfair. We've always complied with the DMCA and our terms are equal to what you'd find on any other UGC site. GS also signed up hundreds if not thousands of small indie labels

No you probably haven't. The lessons I've learned as being a part of this community over the past three years have been immeasurable, and that comes from browsing this site daily. Here's a sample from the top of my head, and this doesn't e

You should try A/B testing your copy. I don't understand the concept of openness and liberation as it applies to photos. To me, those are political concepts, not technological ones. Maybe I'm not in your target market, but to me it makes

You are probably right but this is a war of attrition. There are many, if not the majority, of industry music types who will act this way, but the old guard is literally dying away. So if GS doesn't outlast then a new company most certainly

As a former employee of GS I can say that getting sued is nothing new and may in fact be a good thing for them in a wierd and twisted way. The reason being is that sometimes (this was the case with EMI atleast) the labels use a lawsuit to b

I wouldn't doubt it. But they also don't publish any figures so its difficult to confirm. I work for one of their competitors and we most likely have the same availability requirements... anyways, just curious. Here's where we're at, as a

This is somewhat unrelated, but I remember reading in one of Mixpanel's job posts that they had over 200 servers. 200 for a company of their size that charges by the data point seems kind of a lot. I've worked at a couple tech companies wh

I would quit too. I love Apple products but they come at a huge human cost. One of my best friends works there and he's always extremely stressed out. He works like 15 hour days, 6 days a week. He's constantly bailing on his obligations be

I'm not sure saying "revenue fell in half" is accurate. It looks like they are clarifying what revenue it actually makes ie, instead of counting the full value of the coupon as revenue, they are now adjusting revenue numbers to reflect wha

This is excellent insight. As a developer, my gut reaction is to say but look at all these features and people will pay for that. But thats not really the case. In fact, it seems what people actually pay for is an efficient solution to

Thanks! Great feedback. I'm actually currently testing between multiple price points. I had a higher price point but a lot of my testers said it was way too much, so I'm lowering it and seeing what effect it has on my conversions. Right n

True, but with Ebay, space separates me and the other party, so I still have (or feel like I have) some level of control. Could I still fall victim to random acts of hatred? Sure. Call it a bad taste or a pit in the stomach, but the incide
