New slice the pie website!!

Good evening all,
I was just wondering how many of you are members of Slice the Pie and what do you think of their new website? I rated a few songs but then run out of "energy" and the pay out per song is very poor compared to the old system and now I cannot even get onto the website the page just seems to be an egg timer!

Anybody else got this? What are your thoughts about the website?

Thanks:(

    Looking at some of the comments on facebook it hasn't gone down well.

    The pay is now a maximum of 3 cents but you can earn a 'bonus' depending on the quality of the review.
    You now have to listen to 90 seconds before beginning a review.

    Think this is probably the end of the line for me (shame after 4 years) but we are now talking at least 1 hour to earn every dollar - you may as well walk the streets looking for coins!
  • I agree, I do not think people are very happy and it makes it so hard to make any kind of money! I wonder what others will have to say on here? Also I wonder what they will do - will they listen to the people using the site?

    Doubt it - They never have in the past.

    Shame really as some of the changes are (Potentially) good - like I can see the benefit of having a bonus for good reviews but with such a low base rate it really isn't worth it. Also having a limit on songs is daft - people enjoy listening to music!
  • just noticed it now actually. the site has been dying for some time so I think this does smack of a last roll of the dice really.

    they seem to have abandoned the whole idea of crowd finance in favour of people keeping the soundout model alive.
