List of Changes Going Into Effect On January 15, 2003
The new year is just around the corner, and we wanted to notify you of some important changes to the MP3.com Artist Services going into effect on January, 2003:

Premium Artist Subscription Fee Will be Reduced
Payments due after January 15 will automatically be reduced to only $14.99 -- a 25% savings off the current fee. Additionally, as an option to the monthly subscription plan, a new annual subscription plan of only $99.99 per year will be available -- a 58% savings off the current fee.
P4P Promotion Will be Discontinued
It's our goal to offer Premium Artists the best service for their money and tools that benefit all members. But this was getting more difficult given the enormous accounting, engineering, research and fulfillment costs that went into both the P4P promotion and regrettably, the monitoring of individuals gaming the system. We have thus decided to discontinue the P4P promotion on January 15.

New Name for the Premium Artist Service and a New Gold Service
The Premium Artist Service will be referred to as the Platinum Service. And a new Gold Service will be available for Artists who want fewer of the Platinum Service benefits for a lower fee of $4.99 a month or $49.99 a year. More details about the new Gold Service will be available January 15.
Artist Cash Program Will be Discontinued
Accounting and engineering resource issues associated with the P4P promotion apply also to the Artist Cash program. This has made it necessary for us to discontinue one of our more convenient Artist programs. If you are currently paying for any subscriptions with Artist Cash, please go to your My Account to easily create an alternate payment method.

Basic (non-Premium) Artist Pages Will Display Three Songs Maximum
After January 31, only Gold and Platinum Artists can display an unlimited amount of songs on their Artist page. Basic Artists can display a maximum of three songs on their Artist page. On January 31, all Basic Artist pages with four or more songs will automatically default to display the three most recently uploaded songs. However, the Song Admin allows Artists to quickly and easily change the songs they would like displayed. Please note, you will not need to re-upload songs as a result of this change.

netCD Program Will be Changed
Based on consumer feedback, in order to simplify the online shopping experience, starting on January 15 we will be discontinuing the sale of netCDs as a stand-alone product. Accordingly, the netCD option will be removed from all Artist pages. Please note, My.MP3 account holders purchasing your CDs still will get the netCD version automatically added to their music locker. netCDs purchased prior to January 15 will remain accessible in the music locker as well.
Customer Support Has Changed
As previously announced on December 6, 2002, only Premium Artists can receive email support. Premium Artists get their technical questions or other concerns answered within 48 hours. If you need help, please visit our comprehensive Help section which has FAQs and the System Status Report. The System Status Report is constantly updated by the Artist Support team and provides up to the minute information regarding site-wide technical issues.
