Thats £1.15 in vouchers not real cash, meaning totally worthless cause band trading is closed

the contracts were worthless after the last lot of sales figures were released IMO.

but then i do think that one poster over there did sum it up well - STP are looking to get into america and get US funding. Online gambling isn't allowed in the states, so the exchange had to go.

I guess it was cheaper for them to do it this way rather than announce it in advance and see everyone rush to sell off their contracts.

well the big relaunch has happened - haven't had a chance to properly look at everything, but it appears as if the vouchers are now either to be invested in artists or just left doing nothing - they can no longer be converted into cash.

i wonder how long it'll take someone to ask what they can do with them on here ?

I can't register, their site is buggy.



Ah, managed to get around their error message, if anyone else has this just back out of the page and then forward back into it.

Sounds interesting.

Just withdraw another $5 dollars for the 2nd time this week doing reviews. Doesn't take to long and like hearing the new music.

Yeah, about the same for me as well. Had a happy medium where I could invest in artists (so i didn't feel guilty ) and then use the rest of the money for myself. I even managed to pay for Sky Sports on top of my Sky package for about 8 or 9 months when I was scouting every day!

I decided to properly stop scouting last week as i'd managed to scout up a full tenner. "finished" on 5 stars, 8590 songs and 93.50% accuracy as it all had a sort of 'symmetry' to it.

although there's still a bit of an 'itch' to jump back in again i have to confess ..

I've been on there for a few years, there was a lot of money to be made on there investing vouchers from the virtual-trade and then selling them for £1 when they went live.

Trying to get back into it but the new Support thing with different benfitis seems too confusing.

Also I have tried scouting for a bit and it seems the same things I used to do to maintain a 3-5* ratings don't work.

I have an accuracy of 92% and have rated songs between 1-10 but I can't get above 2*

They've had "the spread" on the site for a couple of years now, but I do think they've tweaked it recently as many people have reported big fluctuations.

I'm not in it just for the money, I really enjoy listening to music hand have invested £600 overall.

But I can't seem to get past this new system.


I do like the fact there is a lot more Anonymous tracks though.
