Ok so its not going to rock your world in terms generating additional sales, but what it does do is add a bit of your personality to your website or enhance your visitors experience. I love it and have been messing around with it for most of Saturday afternoon. FineTune have an affiliate program but as yet I don\u2019t know what the deal is. When they come back to me to tell me, Ill post it the info, looks to me like they are still setting it up as there is no mention of commissions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What&#8217;s in it for you?<\/strong> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-top: 3.75pt; margin-left: 15pt; text-indent: -18pt; line-height: 12pt;\"><!-- [if !supportLists]--><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Wingdings; color: black;\" lang=\"EN-GB\"><span>\u00a7<span style=\"font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;\"> <\/span> <\/span> <\/span> <!-- [endif]--><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black;\" lang=\"EN-GB\">A customizable, co-branded, (usually) FREE service, embedded in your site or application. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-top: 3.75pt; margin-left: 15pt; text-indent: -18pt; line-height: 12pt;\"><!-- [if !supportLists]--><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Wingdings; color: black;\" lang=\"EN-GB\"><span>\u00a7<span style=\"font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;\"> <\/span> <\/span> <\/span> <!-- [endif]--><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black;\" lang=\"EN-GB\">Easy, felxible configuration and maintenance <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-top: 3.75pt; margin-left: 15pt; text-indent: -18pt; line-height: 12pt;\"><!-- [if !supportLists]--><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Wingdings; color: black;\" lang=\"EN-GB\"><span>\u00a7<span style=\"font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;\"> <\/span> <\/span> <\/span> <!-- [endif]--><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black;\" lang=\"EN-GB\">Improved customer retention, increased session length <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: 12pt;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black;\" lang=\"EN-GB\">You control the player! <\/span> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-top: 3.75pt; margin-left: 15pt; text-indent: -18pt; line-height: 12pt;\"><!-- [if !supportLists]--><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Wingdings; color: black;\" lang=\"EN-GB\"><span>\u00a7<span style=\"font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;\"> <\/span> <\/span> <\/span> <!-- [endif]--><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black;\" lang=\"EN-GB\">Completley resizeable <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-top: 3.75pt; margin-left: 15pt; text-indent: -18pt; line-height: 12pt;\"><!-- [if !supportLists]--><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Wingdings; color: black;\" lang=\"EN-GB\"><span>\u00a7<span style=\"font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;\"> <\/span> <\/span> <\/span> <!-- [endif]--><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black;\" lang=\"EN-GB\">Full color control <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-top: 3.75pt; margin-left: 15pt; text-indent: -18pt; line-height: 12pt;\"><!-- [if !supportLists]--><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Wingdings; color: black;\" lang=\"EN-GB\"><span>\u00a7<span style=\"font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;\"> <\/span> <\/span> <\/span> <!-- [endif]--><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black;\" lang=\"EN-GB\">Background images <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-top: 3.75pt; margin-left: 15pt; text-indent: -18pt; line-height: 12pt;\"><!-- [if !supportLists]--><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Wingdings; color: black;\" lang=\"EN-GB\"><span>\u00a7<span style=\"font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;\"> <\/span> <\/span> <\/span> <!-- [endif]--><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black;\" lang=\"EN-GB\">Program your featured content <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: 12pt;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black;\" lang=\"EN-GB\">What&#8217;s in it for your users?

Pandora was pretty good but I got booted as Im not from the US, with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pandora.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"color: black;\">Pandora<\/span> <\/a> I have to be a US citizen, something about them not being able to afford a UK music license, which is a shame as they really do have something simple and unique, ho hum.<\/p>\n<p>But Im loving finetune and Im sure affiliates or even merchants can find loads of ways to use this either on a personal level or enhancing your visitors experience.<\/p>\n<p>To use the plug in just use like you would with an ipod, you can skip a track, pause, turn the volume down or off. Hey, if you decide to sign up and create your own play list, let me know and Ill add it. I think this is great and whilst my music taste may not be to your liking, hey each to their own, the below gives you a look at it, but I reserve the right to keep The Clash and Linkin Park and Everything but the girl, Ill try not to make you wince too much.<\/p>\n<p><embed src=\"http:\/\/www.finetune.com\/player\/FineTuneShell.swf?pinst=330AADF3013741ECA91C3298360CBACB\" quality=\"high\" flashVars=\"pinst=330AADF3013741ECA91C3298360CBACB&#038;height=215&#038;width=215\" pluginspage=\"http:\/\/www.macromedia.com\/go\/getflashplayer\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"215\" height=\"220\"><\/embed><\/p>\n<p>Enjoy &#8211; Jess \ud83d\ude42 <span> <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I discovered finetune.com which is a customizable music plug in, I can update it and add to it and as you can see I can embed it on my website.
