Thanks!

Currently they are paid only for music purchases since we don't make any money off streaming. Eventually if and when we make money off streaming, artists would definitely be compensated.

1. ad-free listening 2. iPhone app (to start with) 3. weekly curated playlists 4. higher quality streaming

We do have manual curation in place. We are not very strict with the filtering but we ensure nothing bad comes in. After the great, good and average comes in, we let the algorithms take over and decide based on user activity, what kind of music to let surface.

Your slider is definitely cool :) We did take the design inspiration for that from you.

I'd love to have a chat with you guys. Feel free to write to us. Cheers!

We do have a html5 fallback, I'll get that looked into.

Edit: Are you on firefox by any chance? Apparently mp3 is not supported there. If not, which browser are you using?
