The StudioLines.com Shopping Cart Is Operational!
StudioLines.com now has a live shopping cart system which allows site visitors
to purchase full-length tracks from its member artists. Previously, the site
was littered with "under construction" signs promising options would be soon
available for obtaining the full length versions of artists' additional tracks.
(Additional tracks only have sample versions available as free downloads. The
full length versions are purchased to support the artists' musical efforts.)
Now that the shopping cart system is in place, site visitors have one of the
planned options available for obtaining the music they want to hear.
In the near future, we will also have options available for ordering custom CDs
with your choice of tracks from StudioLines.com. We will also be supporting
the purchase of CDs our artists and, where they are signed up with one, their
record labels, have available.
To use the shopping cart system, Log In to
your StudioLines.com membership. If you are not yet
registered as a member of the StudioLines.com community, please take the time
to sign up now. It's free, easy, and will only take a couple of
minutes. Once you've signed up, you will have access to many more
features at this site. Simply go to the Sign Up
page in the Members section and follow
the directions there.
Once you are logged in, go to the Online
Shopping section for more information. For fastest results, simply go to
one of the artist pages in the Listen To Music
area, and add tracks from their pages to your shopping cart.

StudioLines.com Development Moves Back Into High Gear
After a series of delays and setbacks, the development of StudioLines.com has
moved back into high gear. We expect to have all of the initial major features
of the site operational before the end of the year. Stay tuned for all of the
exciting developments as they happen!
StudioLines.com Is Now On Its Own Server
StudioLines.com has moved to its own server for increased operational control,
and to allow us to deploy additional features with a minimum of effort. With
60GB of disk space allocated to music files, we expect to be able to host a far
wider range of offerings than we previously could support.
Streaming Support Installed at StudioLines.com
One of the features we installed on the new StudioLines.com server is streaming
audio support, provided through use of RealServer system software. Now, rather
than having to wait for a song to download before being able to listen to it,
site visitors can select the "Play" option for songs and track samples, and
hear the music after a brief pause while the initial data buffer is transferred
to their system. Streaming music, therefore, makes the site seem much more
responsive, and will make it more attractive to visitors. In turn, that will
cause our bands' music to be heard more, providing a better environment for all
concerned.

StudioLines.com Continues Development
StudioLines.com has targeted the third week of April, 2001, for its initial
public use. Toward that objective, we are working on adding features and
functionality as quickly as we can. Please keep an eye on our site for news
about the effort!
StudioLines.com Moved to Web2010
StudioLines.com has moved to Web2010 for its Web hosting service.
We expect this will allow us to more rapidly deploy our site, and provide
faster access for file transfers.

Keyword Access System Functional at studiolines.com
The StudioLines.com Web site now features a "keyword access system" to make
getting to popular destinations easier. The system has now been successfully
deployed, and works properly in the frames environment of the site.
A list of the supported keywords can be obtained by entering
http://www.studiolines.com/go
in your browser's location window, selecting
Keywords
in the navigation map window at the left, or by selecting the
studiolines.com Keyword Access System
link available on most pages througout the site.
studiolines.com Successfully Moved to Linux
studiolines.com has been successfully moved from its previous Micro$oft IIS
Web server to a Linux machine running Apache. Although some glitches were
encountered in the transition, the move is expected to enable us to offer a
far more robust environment, and a much friendlier user experience. We would
like to thank our hosting company,
Infinity Computers, for working
with us to straighten out the bugs we had to work through during the past week.

studiolines.com to be moving to Linux Wednesday
Due to incessant incompatibilities and problems with the Micro$oft IIS Web
server, the development team decided today to move studiolines.com to a Linux
machine. The transition will be effected on Wednesday, with worldwide
propogation of the new DNS address expected before the end of the day Thursday.
The NT site will remain online until the transition process is completed, but
significant features won't be available from the site until the Linux site is
online.

Keyword Access System Installed at studiolines.com
The StudioLines.com Web site now features a "keyword access system" to make
getting to popular destinations easier. However, since the Micro$oft IIS Web
server is unable to pass parameters to a CGI program called from within a Web
page, this feature will not be usefully implemented until the transition to
the Linux server has been accomplished.
