Snocap melting away (p2pnet.net)

If Snocap failed to turn a profit, it isn't because the margins for music are slim, it is because they failed to run their business lean enough. All they had to do was provide a profile widget and market it. From the sound of the article, they were trying to do a lot more, and their overhead was too high.

It's too bad - I really like Snocap, often times its the only way for me to buy non-drm music electronically from smaller artists.
