Hi, how's it going? I'm Justin. I live in Brooklyn and design at Muxtape founder discusses what happened with the site →
And so I made one of the hardest decisions I’ve ever faced: I walked away from the licensing deals. They had become too complex for a site founded on simplicity, too restrictive and hostile to continue to innovate the way I wanted to. They’d already taken so much attention away from development that I started to question my own motivations. I didn’t get into this to build a big company as fast as I could no matter what the cost, I got into this to make something simple and beautiful for people who love music, and I plan to continue doing that. As promised, the site is coming back, but not as you’ve known.
Too bad really. The site was such a nice service. I’m really getting tired of the deep all encompassing greed of large corporations. It’s inevitable that their tyranny will have to end, can’t we just speed up the process?
