I am of an opinion that it's quite rude to ask someone to 'Connect with [Facebook|Twitter|etc]' before actually telling the visitor what it's all about.

The bounce rate would drop significantly if you were to add more than keywords "Mixtaping. Rediscover a lost art." -- I don't supposed people younger than 30 know what it's all about.

I agree. I would prefer to see a demo video of someone else doing it before signing up as well. I don't want social netspam for some product I don't even know if I like yet.

Agreed. The ability to log in with facebook or twitter can streamline the sign-up process, but sites should really also provide the option to sign up via more traditional (email) means. Not doing so limits your ability attract a broader user base.

thanks for the feedback guys, I'll let the team know we should add a better description or a video of the site. Plus, we'll make it clear that the site is still in private beta.

Also, we'll make email signups a priority and roll it out in the next release.

We're an extremely small team, and we're trying to work as fast as we can to meet all our users needs.

shoot us an email at hello [at] mixtaping.fm and we'll approve your beta access asap.

If you're going to get me to 'sign up' via facebook or twitter, at least please make it clear that i'm only signing up for a mailing list, and that there is not yet any product to use. Thanks!

EDIT: received a welcome email after about 20 minutes, so I may have spoken too soon.
