Make it BIG with Mpigg!
-
Mpigg is a web 2.0 music community that allows you to submit new music media such as music files, band websites and music videos that will be reviewed by Mpigg members and promoted, based on popularity, to Mpigg's front page. When a user submits new music media it will be placed in the "Mpiggpen" until it gains sufficient Oinks (votes) to be promoted to the main page. Mpigg users should only submit material they have a legal right to disperse and share. If you have any question about your right to submit material, you should not submit the material. The user is responsible for acquiring legal rights to submit material to Mpigg before any submission to Mpigg occur. Users submitting material to Mpigg accept all liability and responsibility for the material that is submitted.
This is meant to be a web community that promotes music for musicians and bands in order to help promote music to a greater audience. We appreciate all of our honest, hard working musicians, bands and users and look forward to a long, wonderful relationship as we all grow in this internet age. Join us today and Make it BIG with Mpigg.
