I agree with the voice over suggestion.
Try to humanize the site as much as possible.
Based on QA, I wonder what feedback you would get if you placed the video above the fold....

Thanks Charles! I'm exploring the Last.fm integration, there are some interesting possibilities. As for monetising, CD and mp3 sales commission should fit nicely. People should want to buy the new music they are into.
Suggestions: - Lose some of the fluff. For example, in your "what?" section, you could've written it as simply "We notify you when artists release new albums". There is no reason to have more words than you need to describe your product. - I would have preferred voice in the video. Don't be shy, having a voice over helps a lot. - Maybe add a way to import information from existing sources like Last.fm or Facebook's music interests?
I'm intrigued by how you guys plan to monetize this, but maybe I'm just greedy and should be thankful for a web app that helps alleviate some of my headaches.
