Just because I feel like doling out a tiny crumb of largesse today (too much caffeine, too little rest), please visit cdbaby.com.
They only carry music made by small artists, on small labels. Their search engine lets you search by mood, geographic location, or random word, and they have a terrific associative function that lets you enter an artist's name, say "The Flaming Lips," and gives you back a list of albums they carry that you'll like if you like the Flaming Lips. And most stuff is about ten bucks.
This, folks, is how it is done. Please give them your support.

I can testify that not only
I can testify that not only do they have all the wonderful qualities Johno mentioned, they have a great sense of humor.
When they shipped my CD, I received this email:
CD Baby loves Stephen!
Your CD has been gently taken from our CD Baby shelves with sterilized contamination-free gloves and placed onto a satin pillow.
A team of 50 employees inspected your CD and polished it to make sure it was in the best possible condition before mailing.
Our packing specialist from Japan lit a candle and a hush fell over the crowd as he put your CD into the finest gold-lined box that money can buy.
We all had a wonderful celebration afterwards and the whole party marched down the street to the post office where the entire town of Portland waved 'Bon Voyage!' to your package, on its way to you, in our private CD Baby jet on this day, Tuesday, August 27th.
I hope you had a wonderful time shopping at CD Baby. We sure did. Your picture is on our wall as 'Customer of the Year'. We're all exhausted but can't wait for you to come back to CDBABY.COM!!
Thank you once again,
Derek Sivers, president, CD Baby
Definitely check them out.
