"I love your free download section. I consistently hear things off there that I really like, and often end up buying. A whole track is much more times more compelling than a 30-second clip, and it's especially nice to have an entry point into contemporary jazz -- it's easy enough to figure out which hundreds of great recordings from the '60s I should buy, but I like to support musicians who are actually still alive and working too. There's a lot more really good, current stuff out there than I thought."

You have nothing to fear.

The All About Jazz daily download feature will bring great exposure to you and your music.

• We limit file availability to ten days
• We track how many times your file has been downloaded and furnish you with the results
• We include links to the artist, the label and a retail website
• We ask for 128kbps to 192kbps (preferred) recording quality audio (which is well below CD quality)
• Distributing a free track is an inexpensive and highly effective way to advertise your music and your name.
• The likelihood of an AAJ reader purchasing your CD as a result of hearing your music via our daily download feature are great.
• You can tag your mp3 file with your name, the title of the track and the album it appears on. This information will be displayed in a user's mp3 player each time the track is heard.
