Development of the new Site (xbtmusic Version 2)

We are slowly finalizing the work on the New Site. See below for detailed work progress. See this forum thread for features and details. This is also where any updates from us will be posted. If you have any questions or suggestions, you are also welcome to post them there.

New hardware: 100% bought
New site: ±80-90% ready
Final assembly: 0% (not started yet)


There is not official ETA yet. We will be ready when we are ready. But it will be sooner than later wink.gif

The Site with fully revised functionality completely redesigned and rewritten = great looks and will be very convenient to use
