I had a recent email informing me DT are now accepting audio. I have submitted some for review to see how the land lies but I do notice no audio is live on the site as yet. Anyone else having a punt ?

As per info at http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/dreamstime-now-accepting-studio-quality-audio-clips-to-meet-the-needs-of-its-14-million-users-300267001.html

The collection will be available for purchase in the coming months after a large number of submissions are received by the Dreamstime community

My eyes hurt from the amount of qualified marketing bull**** in that article...

"Only 16bit/44kHz"... sigh.

"Not found elsewhere in the industry" - "already received 10,000 clips within 24 hours"... Sure, the composers were just waiting to upload those clips exclusively to the glorious Dreamstime website...

"Most customers in the world"... Right, not even close.

What will the prices be? Don't submit audio to subscription services, please.

I would say, first update your website so it works and doesn't look like it's from 1997 before introducing audio...

I laughed at"10.000" mark that morning cause I submitted 9600 the night before :))))

My measly 3 are still stuck in pending since May 6th.

I was going to ask on their boards how long the wait is and how long the queue is but apparently I can't post there at all.  what? :-\

I think they will be in the pending state untill audio goes live.

If that's the case I'm wondering if I should even make more and upload there if the wait time is going to be months.

It would make more sense if they went ahead and reviewed them and held them in a not available for purchase state so the entire collection can go live once they open it up.
