Facebook problem

So, we are verified to upload our music, but when I (and fans, who told me) press play, I can't hear anything. The song loads, it even starts, but it's like it's muted. Like I said, fans can't hear them too...

Anyone else experienced this problem? Thanks for your time.

I can't believe you got verified... I've been waiting weeks now. None too happy about them wanting to scan of drivers license either...

I used iLike and it can be put on your facebook page

Thanks! just one more question though... How do I put it on my band's page, and not my personal page? It puts it there, not in my band's.

Damn computers

Folks are raving about facebook but for music sites IMO it suks. Myspace is way better for a quick easy site and i dont feel facebook is going to replace it due to the problems with how you have to go thru hassles to submit your work etc.

I dont like the whole facebook format as well as myspace , it's clumsy and sterile. I think for finding old chums or social gabbing its great for bands ...nope...all IMO.

The problems are that myspace is on the downfall, myspace is inundated with crappy bands (many with those "friend finder" programs, so the number of "friends" a band has is now meaningless), and Facebook is one more avenue for free advertising that probably shouldn't be passed by.

I've tried a couple of times to get facebook going for our band and have failed miserably. Ug. sux.

Could be, but i still see allot of traffic on myspace by big label bands as well. I also still see signed bands putting out myspace links but no facebook. Give it time myspace will recover. I also feel facebook will turn off allot of folks..could be wrong. My band adds who we want to the friends area...no mass amount to look cool. I also see crappy bands going to facebook as well to get more exposure.
