I have had several songs forwarded in the past year. In the interim, my email address has changed twice (by circumstance, not choice) How should I go about notifying the companies that have my music of the change? I only have the name on the card Taxi sent me.This is one of those "oh, s**t" moments, when I realized that, if opportunity knocked, the address would be wrong!

Kind of... ...I think email addresses that are tied to your ISP are really a no no for business, cause those can change. If you don't have a personal website and thus an email that comes with that (like
og@oldgoat.com), it's better to use a free one like hotmail or gmail because they're portable.You really need a reliable address that won't change if you move or change ISP and so on.If the company that got your forward is interested enough they will call you if your email bounces back, or they might even call Taxi if they REALLY like your stuff. But...you don't wanna make extra work for them so it's an important part of "taking care of business" to have a reliable constant email account.matto

Are you absolutely sure the ISP that had your email address before can't forward to the new one?Just thought I'd ask.

I'm sure they can--don't know if they would...

It's worth a try! Better than losing important emails
