  I know many people are curious whether their monthly fees are worth it. Of all the companies we list, any comments from our users regarding this service would be great!

  There is a nice discussion thread on Harmony Central about whether Sonicbids is worth the investment in time and money.

  The basic gist is that most people think much of it feels like a scam, or as one person says: “They really seem like just another shark in the waters to me. Just like those “record labels” and “Publishers” who are really excited to “sign you” and only need $400 to produce the demo.”

  Some more discussion:
