Sujet de la discussion offre bizzare sur myspace
salut a tous

sur le myspace de "mon" groupe, on à reçu un mail chelou, déja c'est dur de tout lire, c'est en anglais et on dirait une arnaque du style "donne moi ton numéro de carte bleue je te transfère l'héritage d'un mec quelque part dans le monde".
Bref, je savais pas que ce genre de truc existait aussi sur myspace...

voici leur myspace http://www.myspace.com/qspvtw

et leur mail:



Hi,

I heard your song, “Tenzin Le Moine Boudhiste” and I am very impressed with it. We are currently working on a benefit compilation CD titled “Vs. The World”. It will feature Punk and Pop Punk artists from across the scene. I believe that your song would be a perfect fit on this project and I would be honored to have you take part.

My name is Danny Bryant, and I am a project manager with Quickstar Productions, as well as a musician. Quickstar Productions is a company that specializes in designing music-marketing campaigns and supplying digital distribution services for record labels and independent artists. In 2005, Quickstar Productions released its first Comp CD as a way to promote unsigned artists. This CD was extraordinarily successful in accomplishing its mission! Over the years the company has built off that success and perfected a marketing plan to maximize exposure for the artist. Quickstar Productions is based out of Baltimore, MD USA and is an active member of the Maryland Better Business Bureau with an “A” rating.

“Vs. the World” is a CD designed to raise money and awareness for the issue of climate change through partnerships with the Go Green Initiative and A Brighter Planet. Keeping with the spirit of helping our environment this will be a green CD. It will be printed on recycled paper with natural inks. Money raised from this CD will be donated to charities like the Go Green Initiative, as well as organizations like Brighter Planet who help lower the carbon footprint of corporations and individuals. On top of their financial contributions, Quickstar Productions believes in helping to raise awareness and continuing education on important environmental issues like climate change.
We really want this CD to make a difference to our planet, but we also want it to be advantageous to the artists on it as well. Therefore we have designed a complete marketing plan for the CD. “Vs. The World” will be marketed and made available in the following ways:

1. PHYSICAL SALES: You will receive 50 copies of the CD to sell at whatever price you choose. These will be professionally produced, retail ready CD’s. We recommend selling them for $8. That way you can make $400. You keep 100% of your sales. This is a great way to get more merchandise to sell at your shows and also a way to target other fans in your genre. The idea is that when each artist sells their 50 copies, the other artists on the CD will have their music exposed to other fans of your genre of music. Therefore, your song will be exposed to many new listeners.

2. DIGITAL SALES: The compilation will be made available for sale in all digital stores including iTunes, Rhapsody, Wal-Mart, Napster, and Amazon. Your song will also be available as a ringtone that your fans may purchase. You will receive 50% of profits generated.

3. EXPOSURE: The CD will be sent to record labels, marketing, and management firms. Along with the CD, a booklet featuring your picture and bio will be made available so they can learn a little bit more about you. In addition, free promo copies will be handed out at concerts in the Baltimore/Washington area. Quickstar Productions will also promote the album through the use of MySpace.

4. RADIO: The CD will be sent to college and internet radio stations and be featured on various podcasts throughout the world.

5. NETWORKING: Developing a network with other musicians is key to one’s success. This comp CD is a chance to do so. You will be provided with all the other artists’ information before the CD is released so that you can start show swapping with one another, networking and helping each other out.

To have your song included on our upcoming compilation CD please visit our website, Quickstarproductions com, to download the submission forms. We do not charge a fee to be on “Vs. the World” but we do ask that you purchase 50 CD’s to distribute at cost ($165). That way we can cover the costs of the project so that as large of portion of the proceeds can be donated as possible. This will be the only cost to you. One of the most important parts of this project is getting the CD into the hands of fans. The more CD’s that you are able to distribute the more exposure everyone gets.
Please check out www QuickstarProductions com for more info on this compilation. Since we plan to release this CD as soon as possible, we ask that all submissions be returned by Aug. 15th. If you're interested and you'd like to talk more about the project, feel free to contact me! I try to check Myspace but I'm more easily reachable through e-mail or by phone. Thanks, and I hope to hear back from you soon! We appreciate your interest in helping fight global warming.

Rock on,

Danny Bryant

Salut,

C'est simple : tu payes 165$ pour recevoir 50 CDs avec ta musique et celle d'une dizaine d'autres..

Au mieux c'est une bête arnaque.  Au pire, tu te retrouves avec 50 CDs que tu n'oserais même pas refiler à ta famille à Noël. 

Plus sérieusement, le site Web à l'air pro ( http://www.quickstarproductions.com ).  Danny Bryant est en effet Project Manager.  Et ils annoncent des compiles.  Donc à toi de voir si tu es prêt à casquer 165$ (soit 3,30$ par CD, le double du tarif standard) et assurer la distribution toi même.  Mis à part la mise en ligne promise (hum !), toi et les autres serez votre propre canal de distribution.

Et rien ne dit qu'on ne va pas vous demander de repasser à la caisse dans 6 mois parce qu'il y a des invendus et, tu vois, ce serait bête de tout passer au pilon.

ouais d'accord, donc c pas une société fictive, c un truc qui tourne vraiment, mais le truc intéressant quand même c'est que si j'ai bien compris ils produisent ton titre de manière assez pro quand meme. Après faut aller au usa pour le faire ?!?

enfin bref c chelou

Aller aux USA ?
Surement pas.  Ils ne produisent pas ton tire : tu le leur envoie, déjà enregistré, mixé et tout.  C'est ça qui va sur la compil après éventuel remaster suivant le soin qu'ils y apportent (mais rien n'est dit).  Le CD sera réalisé de manière pro en terme de packaging.  C'est tout ce qui est indiqué.

Hey,

On m'a fait le coup il y a quelque temps...
Tu ne verra jamais la couleur du CD c'est clair.

Après, vu que je n'ai pas donné d'argent, peu être que certains "labels" ne baratinent pas.

Quoiqu'il en soit, demande des précisions au gars, notamment en ce qui concerne les droits de reproduction par exemple...Tu verras si'il te répond et de quelle manière.

Moi je dis arnaaaaque !

Ah! au fait, un CD vert n'existe pas, les galettes sont faite à base de pétrole, bien raffiné je pense.

Bonne route
