If any of you bothered to read the page, you'll see that it's FREE to get onto their 'books' for a limited time.

Jesus, with people like you around, I HOPE none of your bands from Aberdeen 'make it'.
It's not the first time something like this has been posted up.

What can I say, we're a sceptical bunch.

Looks like their way of scamming people involves getting you to submit music, they tell you that it's great and that people are interested, but they take money off you to tell you who is interested.

Let's be honest, if they were worthwhile, why isn't there any telephone/address details on the site? Any reputable business would have no problem telling you how to contact them...

How's about you leave the scepticism to people in bands, rather than some self-important weenie with a penchant for Google-ing their way through an argument.

You could always send them an e-mail questioning their legitimacy. It will be answered within 2 working days.....

I like this bit: "To leave this website click here."

Course not

To be honest, what could they really offer that plain old fashioned hard work couldn't offer?

contacts and a foot in the door. however i doubt there is any suitable bands for the type of deal they're marketing you for in aberdeen just now. it's certainly not for me hence my response.

like you say, hard work will do most of what they offer and no one knows who to aim your music at better than the people that wrote it. if you're interested in this thing you'd be just as well entering x-factor and be done with it.
