If you were looking for a website like iBandstand (or somewhat like it), what search terms would you enter into Google (or other search engine) to find such a site?
I didn't know exactly what to search for, which stumped me for a bit. I tried music uploading and music sharing websites first. Then even though I knew it was defunct, I tried icompositions and that search is what led me to this site - it brought up a post on reddit "RIP icompositions" that named this site as the successor.
Possible search terms: iCompositions, collab, collaboration, musicians, creative, community, fun, chat
……
I found this site because I was looking for some old iCompositions friends.
