OK, since more than one person are interested, let's talk here on the  
list. First off, there's a special link for musicians to start  
setting up a MySpace account (that large "sign in" button will create  
a fan account, at least I ended up with one I had to delete the first  
time I tried). Don't remember where that special musician's account  
button is, but can check if you guys don't find it. Next, create your  
profile as you would do on any regular website. Once you create a  
musician's account you will be prompted to upload your photos, songs,  
videos, etc. Watch for those "allow everyone to download your song"  
and "rate my song" checkmarks, you probably want to have them  
unchecked when uploading your songs, otherwise everyone and his uncle  
will be able to download/copy/do whatever their imagination tells  
them. Also, set your player to start automatically when someone goes  
to your page. Selling songs there is a bit tricky as only US citizens  
can do it at the moment. If you choose "USA" as your country of  
residence, you will see a special Snocap (spelling) link on your  
profile, go there and sign an agreement with them. Mind you, I am not  
a big fan of selling songs on MySpace and highly prefer Broadjam.com  
aIMHO it's way more professional and again IMHO it's one of the best  
places to go if you're looking for a publishing deal or something.

Guess that's enough for a start. Feel free to ask me anything online  
and offlist.

Best,

Andy

P.S. Should you wish to open a new account on Broadjam, just give me  
a note and I'll give you a 10% discount.
