I like asthmatic Kitty's approach. Even though i may not always agree with Pitchfork's review of a cd, i do check them regularly enough to see what is a new release, and in turn will see what is available for semi cheap download. (especially if the do highly endorse it.)

Really interesting to see how independent musicians are reacting to this revolution of the music industry.
With the advent of Web 2.0, independent musicians are more powerful now than ever. They have all the resources in the world to make a name for themselves without the need to sign under a major label.
