Grab a Slice. 21/10/2008

User recommends the product

Advantages Some great music, money, addictive.
Disadvantages Some really bad music.

-------------- What is it? -------------- Slicethepie.com is a site dedicated to helping new bands get discovered, and also helping users of the site earn a few pounds, by listening to and rating artist's music. At heart the idea is great, and the site is really enjoyable to use. You sign up and you instantly become a "Scout". You look through various "Scout Rooms" and rate some of the music that is featured in that room. -------------- Signing Up -------------- Slicethepie.com requires no real personal information, and it only takes around 5 minutes to sign up, the process really isn't that ... more

Advantages Learn about new music and earn some pennies at the same time.
Disadvantages You will be reviewing every song you hear in your head when not on the computer.

I have been a member of Slicethepie for about 5 years I think. I first noticed them after reading someone's comments about them on the moneysavingexpert web site. 'Be like Simon Cowell and become a music scout' or something like that. Well after joining up, which was simply a case of giving name and email and a password I seem to remember, I quickly discovered that this is not really like 'being Simon Cowell' in as much as you must give your own views and reflections of the music while you scout, you cant of course see the artists and so cant comment on their outer appearance . The scouting ... more

User recommends the product

Advantages Music, Reviews, Write Music Reviews, New Music, New musicians
Disadvantages A few occassional site glitches but it all works again and site admin listen to members

I was watching TV one evening and this site was mentionned as one of the ways to make money online and there was a short snippet by someone who had used the site and had earned a bit of money from it. I was rather intrigued because I am a music fan and the thought of getting to listen to music, new tracks and artists, write reviews on the tracks and earn a few bob doing it was interesting and I had to check it out!:) I googled the site up and I set up an account, checked the FAQs and T&Cs as you do... and I was good to go. In the first few days and months, I listened to more rock and metal ... more

Pie In the Sky 01/02/2013

User doesn't recommend the product

Advantages Interesting website design, pays straight to Paypal, the referral feature
Disadvantages Really bad music as standard, can take a really long time until you can withdraw

SliceThePie is a website based in Berkshire where musicians pay to have their music reviewed by the public. Despite being based in England they pay reviewers (i.e. us) in $$, presumably because it's cheaper than the GBP. SliceThePie has a unique site configuration where reviewers enter "the scout room" as the default page, where you can listen to music, write a review and rate it after at least 90 seconds. The review is then evaluated by a computer for words like melody, tempo, beat, rhythm, and so on and, if it decides the rating is appropriate compared to the review and that it has enough ... more
