Haystack is for fans of the alternative music scene; those interested in the bands that haven't (yet, or likely never will) hit the Top 40. They cover almost all genres, but mostly focus on Indy rock, hip hop, and metal more than American Idol type fare. The site is hip, funky and replete with free music. You can find music from the playlists of friends or "tastemakers", you can listen to interviews of bands interviewing fellow bands, you can create your own playlist, you can watch videos, and you can add yourself as a new artist. They even have the Haystack team playlist to hear or the "songs people are currently talking about."

"Create a profile and personalize it with images and videos (you can even add them from Youtube!)"
| Why it might be a killer | |||
|
|
This site has the "it" factor for those interested in cutting edge music, which includes the vaulted 18-34 year old consumer crowd. Site traffic is already high.
| Some questions | |||
|
|
Are they going to partner with an online site for downloading music so you can easily buy a song after hearing it (for example, after every song on the Haystack playlist, they should link to where you can buy it)? Are they advertising on the popular social networking sites?
