not heard of since the early days of Oasis. Indeed, like Oasis, The Jesus and Mary Chain and The Sex Pistols before them, Glasvegas have the potential
to change Rock and Roll for a generation. Geraldine is their 3rd single, out today, and it's bombastic affair. Have a listen to it for free,

We7.com should enter Asian Music Market
There are a lot of music download web sites out there today and We7.com is one of them. It offers free and paid downloads to its subscribers. The free downloads are available for people who don’t mind advertisements being inserted into the music they are listening to. The ads are based on your interests, so you are basically paying for the music with your time. These options are available, so that the artists can be paid for what’s rightfully theirs. The ads pay them when you don’t want to. Not a lot of download sites are available all over the world, neither is We7.com. By expanding to countries like Asia, we7asia would allow more people to download their music and it would make more money.
It is a win-win situation for everyone. With the internet, the Asians would be able to download and listen to their music on their PCs or MP3s. In exchange for the music downloads, the web site we7asia would be able to make more money. The advertisers would also be able to reach even more people, expanding their company’s exposure. More people would know about their products and services, which in return could lead to more customers and revenue.
Asia is known to be a financially stable economy, so it is a great idea to offer such services the we7asia would bring to a country like this. It wouldn’t be a waste of time purchasing servers for the country because we7asia would earn their profits in very little time. Asia is a country that enjoys worldwide music, so many downloads would definitely take place. The web site and advertisers would begin making money immediately. It is also known that there are lots and lots of people living in Asia, so the exposure of we7asia would be high. With just the word of mouth alone would help to increase the awareness about the site; enough to bring in lots of traffic.
The technology in Asia is also very advanced; so many people there have MP3 players, computers and other musical gadgets to download music to. Investing in Asia’s technology is always a great investment. We7asia would offer many of its residents with many music choices from around the world. Countries like Japan, China and India are well-known for their fast paced environments; a music download web site like we7asia would become highly popular in very little time.
Asia is a very large manufacturer for all types of products and machines. There is no doubt that the country would benefit from the ease of music downloads we7asia would have. To return the favor, financial benefits would be received to the site and advertisers. By offering advertisements the Asian people would care about means more money for various companies working with we7asia. This would be just the beginning for a music download web site. Soon it could expand to even more countries, becoming a world-wide web site. The next step to get here would be to create a we7asia site and the rest would soon follow.
