We've been working hard to add cool new things to GroupieTunes, and we're happy to announce GroupieTunes 2.5. What's all included? Read on, Macduff!

Artist Acounts

Getting Groupies Is Now Easier

You spoke, we listened. We're throwing open the doors to independent and unsigned artists to sell their ringtones and wallpapers - for free! You can still use the cool networking features we've got that are standard on all accounts, but now you can sign up for a *free* Trial Artist Account and get 3 upload slots. Put up 3 of your songs, 1 song and two wallpapers - the choice is up to you. Feeling the pinch and want some more room? Upgrade to the Standard Account for $19.99. You'll get 7 more upload slots for a total of 10 and also get SMS Messaging on your artist account so your fans can sign up to receive alerts directly from their favorite artist - you. Or, if you're feeling frisky, splurge for the Premium Account for $49.99, which gets you unlimited (well, just about... you get 1000 uploads that we'll refresh for you if you need more) uploads AND the SMS Alerts. Get signed up today and start making your music mobile!

Linking

Connect the dots

GroupieTunes gives the power of exploration to the fans. We let you guys tell us what artist reminds you of another artist. Do the lead singers look alike? Same guitar player in both? The reasons why are up to you. Create links from one band to another that with a simple click. Then we let other fans know the most popular links for each artist.

Favorites

Make a statement and declare your favorite artists. As you explore the site, we let you track your session. See an artist you like, just click the heart next to their name and it's now on your fan page as a favorite. Go back to your fan page anytime and tweak your fandom.

Blog From your computer or your phone

It's like having your own reality TV show. Whether you're an artist or a fan, you get to share your lives with others. GroupieTunes lets you upload video, graphics, photos or text right from your phone or of course, the old fashioned way... your computer. When you post, give us about 2 minutes to get things sorted on our end and then voilà - you're a star, baby.

Tagging

You're it

Yeah, artists will tell you what words they use to describe themselves and yeah, they'll say they're metal rock, but maybe you think they're more like tin rock. Or maybe aluminum-rock. Attach any tag (within reason) to artists on their page. See other fans' tags or add your own. Then, just click tags and start exploring.

Comments/Ratings

Let the world know what you think

Everyone has opinion. Let's hear yours. You can know make comments and rank artists artist so others can know what you think.

Exploring / Expanding Universe

Music and Friend Discovery Made Easy

Discovering new music should be fun and easy. We've created the expanding universe concept to help you do it. First, our search & browse pages help you narrow down the music to what you want to hear with ease.

Then, after you find an artist you like, share that experience with other fans of the same artist. When you listen to an artist's music, your universe opens up and you can then interact with anyone that is a fan of that artist. The more music you listen to, the more fans you can interact with and the bigger your universe.

Messaging

GroupieMail, the best thing ever

Send messages to any artist or anyone that's in your universe - just send a message from their page. Want to save and organize messages? Build folders to put messages in. Want to know when you have new message? Choose to get notices in email and/or text message alert form. And soon you'll be able to read, browse, and message all from your phone as well.

SMS Alerts

Always know what's up with your favorite artist

Tour dates, new releases or even just saying hi; it's always great to keep up with your favorite artists. Signup and opt-in to get text messages and alerts. They're free (minus your standard text message rate) so you're always up to speed with what's going on in your favorite artists' world, all on the one device that is always with you: your phone.
