IMO the internet alone is the place for distribution that everyone
has access to (well not everyone as of right now, but soon
enough). participating in online communities can raise your
profile and its easy enough to sell things through your own
website. i dont see how padding apple's wallet is to anyone's
advantage. centralizing the money in the music industry will lead
to a similar situation to what we're experiencing now. for the mp3
revolution to matter, the money has to be dispersed throughout the
music community.
