CDBaby.com – just another online retailer of CDs, right?
Wrong!
CDBaby is certainly not another Amazon wannabe. It is an online music store, but with a real difference. In business since 1998 and based in Portland, Oregon, CDBaby sells music by independent musicians. These artists send ... Read review
Advantages: Quick, easy promotion and distribution of an artist's music Disadvantages: The "sounds like" category may be misleading to the casual listener.
As a "senior" musician and home recording artist in the local Maryland area, I always wanted to share my original and cover charts with the listening public. While it's true that all musicians make more profit in public concerts, CD Baby makes it easy for anyone to take that chance on the national and international level. Their onetime setup fee is very reasonable. They guide you through the distribution process with online tech help and telephone ... ...promoted my cd "Four Guitar Lovers to Amazon.com mp3 store, i-Tunes.com, Napster.com along with supplying my personal upc barcode for easy sale identification. After my first cd was sold to a listener in Donegal, Ireland (not too bad for a local boy from, Maryland), I received a full sales report of the transaction, along with the customer's e-mail (which I found very helpful in writing to the customer and thanking their support).

CDBaby is certainly not another Amazon wannabe. It is an online music store, but with a real difference. In business since 1998 and based in Portland, Oregon, CDBaby sells music by independent musicians. These artists send their CDs to the team at CDBaby who warehouse, market, sell and distribute them to customers over the web and then pay the musicians directly. Oh, and they listen ... ...may suffer if you add CDBaby.com to your browser’s favourites!
Now I don’t by any means intend to imply that the majority of CDBaby’s musical offering is of minority appeal or quite as unusual as ‘Sabbatum’ – I’m just trying to illustrate the diversity available for those looking for a change from the mainstream diet of manufactured saccharin sounds. 'Sabbatum' is available for US$14, or about £7.53 at today's exchange rate, plus shipping (which ...
