Free is a seductive word. Put the word in an ad, say something along the lines of ‘Buy One Get One Free’ and you’ll be sure to get results. Put something like, ‘Buy 2 for the Price of 1’, on the other hand, and the results may not be so fabulous. So when a website comes along offering free music, it’s sure to get a good amount of attention. Take Dorble, for example. Dorble is a new site generated from the ashes of a similar site called Gimado. Gimado launched only a few months ago, but didn’t quite work out. It’s new incarnation is very similar. It’s essentially a music sear... read more
