This came through my soundclick page - what do you all think, legit?
Hello
,
We heard your music on Soundclick and really like what you’re creating!
We are sending you this email explaining how we can promote you and your
music and to let you know a little more about us.
Who We Are:
InTheMO.com is a new online recommendations community that features the
best in food, fashion, music, nightlife and the arts in 49 major
metropolitan cities across 14 countries. We have been shooting video
features on the most fascinating artists and cultural icons that breathe
life into these cities and we will be launching our website in the next
couple months. In addition to the people that we feature, we also feature
the best live music venues, restaurants, nightlife venues, hotels and
boutique shops in each of these cities.
Where Your Music Comes In:
We feature music from both established and up and coming artists to enhance
our videos and in return establish direct links to a page where you can
sell your music, plug your label, and provide credit on the videos where
your songs appear. (see link below)
We like the sound and quality of your music and feel that it would work
well with some of our video features. Should you choose to take advantage
of this opportunity, you can send us a CD with tracks that you give us the
permission to use for our features, and as stated above, in return, we will
establish direct links to a page where you can sell your music, plug your
label, and provide credit on the videos where your songs appear. Another
option is to register at the link below and upload your tracks
directly.
There would be no money changing hands between us, only a solid promotional
opportunity for you and a way for us to enhance the quality of our videos
with music from some of the best established and emerging artists in the
country and direct links on your pages for our audience to purchase your
music.
Please view some of our videos here, you can also upload tracks
directly to this site:

Check out a sample of our videos and the quality of our work. Having your
music featured on our videos will increase their exposure to audiences that
might not hear them otherwise.
If you are interested in sending over some more music, please send an email
videomusic@inthemo.com.
We appreciate your time, and look forward to working with you!
Best of Luck,
InTheMO

At first glance, it looks interesting…
I wonder if you might relinquish the ownership to your creativity and distribution (or some portion, of it) if your take them up on posting your music on their site…
Sometimes I can be overly pessimistic… However, you are getting noticed…
Are they leaving you to decide what song titles of your material to upload ?
Bill…
This is an awesome way to get some free promotion but it sounds to me a little like they are just trying to get a free ride! like they’d be getting the better deal.
Tom…you rock!
I figured the only reason you’re not in the charts and all over the music news is coz you’ve bean beating them of and dismissing offers like this in favor of using your intelligence to make a living (some people get it all don’t they) x
Being British I am by nature a cynical b****** I would like to think that your talent would shine through regardless Tom. But, I’m not sure you’re that bothered
You seem to be perfectly happy with your life as it is, and that ain’t a bad way to be.
Being half Scottish though, I would say do it if it doesn’t cost you anything
Oh, I have no ambitions. I’m always curious about the new things going on the music industry.
Exposure is exposure though. If it genuinely doesn’t cost anything up front and there’s a chance to make a few bucks?..
Wow - that’s very cool - That’s a lot better than you get HERE.
Going to explore?
