Online Music Collaboration Links & Information (please contribute) Hi, Is anyone out there successfully collaborating on songs online? If so, please let us know how. As I learn of web sites that facilitate collaboration, I'll try to add them to the list below in this top post so people can...

Hi, First off, I'd like to say I'm sure glad this place exists. I found a forum on Yahoo Groups with a similar theme, but there were only like 3 posts a month. This bbs is incredibly activity; it's great to see1 I have a two different interests that I want to pursue, and eventually converge...
