Talk:Trusonic

I edited this page to reflect the fact that Trusonic did not found garageband.com. Garageband.com was founded in 1999.[[1]].

While the page you cited does not state that Trusonic founded GarageBand, Trusonic should take all the credit. The officials at Trusonic had (and owned, for that matter) all the assets of the defunct mp3.com. Seeing that the hard work of independent artists was soon to be deleted, they picked up the tab and founded GarageBand. If you look at the "About Us" page at Trusonic, you will see that they also broke ground in 1999. Therefore, the claim of Trusonic founding GarageBand is substantially supported, and I will change both articles back to reflect the original information. --Compdude512 00:40, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Did some substantial cleanup work to try and give this article a NPOV - please feel free to edit further if you feel the need but I think we've got it neutral enough to stave off deletion... JaedenStormes 18:21, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Garageband.com was not founded by Trusonic, Inc. or MP3.com, Inc. Here is the history with some links for reference. Michael Robertson founded Zcompany, MP3.com, Inc. which was later renamed MP3.com, Inc. Bob Simiril created the Business Music Services division of MP3.com in the summer of 1999 which was renamed to Trusonic in 2002. Vivendi Universal purchased MP3.com and all of its divisions (including Trusonic) in 2001 http://www.internetnews.com/ec-news/article.php/796301. In 2003 Vivendi Universal decided to sell off it's Internet assets in the US. Trusonic, Inc. was a new corporation formed to acquire the Trusonic business unit assets of Vivendi Universal / MP3.com, Inc. The acquisition was completed in December 2003, including the independent artist catalog. Trusonic, Inc's management partnered with GarageBand.com and created a system where the artists could authorize Trusonic, Inc. to perform a transfer of the content to GarageBand.com.

GarageBand.com was founded in 1999 and was on the down and out until Ali Partovi, founder of LinkExchange which was sold to Microsoft, resurrected GarageBand.com in 2002 http://siliconvalley.internet.com/news/article.php/1468421
