Sharing mixes online using services like Soundcloud, Rapidshare, or Yousendit has never been easier. Today I came across a new service called Legitmix while checking out the Mad Decent website. The concept is that you upload your mix to the site and it scans through and finds all the songs. Based on what songs are in the mix it comes up with a price for the mix. Now everyone will get a cut from mixtapes including Labels, artists, and of course Legitmix too.. Sounds good right? Well I will ask you this question. Who will honestly pay for a mixtape? I know I wouldn't. With mixes so readily available on blogs, file sharing networks, and of course in the streets through CDs. Well.. Maybe I would if it was a really great artist like Diplo( checkout his latest Mixtape MAD LEGIT). Well guess what!? MAD DECENT is among the first partners of LEGITMIX. Looks like Legitmix has been playing their cards right so far, we'll see how things work out in the future for them. But I do like the concept and its definitely a new way to look at putting out mixtapes. Let us know what you think in the comments below.
