plug.dj was an interactive online social music streaming website based in Los Angeles, owned by Rowl, Inc. The site was "dedicated to growing positive international communities for sharing and discovering music". It was a free service with microtransactions, and had over 3 million registered accounts. The website was launched on February 29, 2012 by Steven Sacks, Alex Reinlieb, and Jason Grunstra. Plug.dj consisted of different online chat rooms, called "communities", that users could freely create. Inside each community, users could choose to join a wait list and wait for their turn to be the DJ for everyone else in the community, playing a video or song chosen from either YouTube or SoundCloud, or simply listen passively. Users could also vote positively or negatively for each song or video played, or add it to their own playlists. By spending time or being active on the site, they were able to earn experience points (XP) and plug points (PP), which could be used to unlock and purchase various items, such as new avatars and chat badges. Each community on plug.dj was typically focused on a few specific musical genres, usually one of the subgenres of EDM (Electronic Dance Music), such as Trap, Dubstep, Electro, Drum'n'Bass and many others. Communities dedicated to non-electronic genres, such as rock, jazz, death metal, and classical also existed. The community creator was able to promote users to moderators to help ensure the community's rules were followed and to keep the environment friendly. Volunteer global moderators, called "Brand Ambassadors", also existed. More information...
