Some of the "Indies" are doing well via the Social Networking model... it's 
friends telling friends, telling friends, posting blogs, etc. Before you know 
it, they're selling thousands of CD's and downloads. The better they are, the 
more people will blog about them, the greater the chance of getting picked up 
by Radio, etc.

What a wonderous invention the Internet has become... and the new 
distribution model is showing signs of rapid and continued growth. Radiohead is just the 
most recent "BIG" success story, and it's still only on "Chapter One"! There 
are definitely going to be a LOT more to come. "Stay tuned."

We do, indeed, live in interesting times.
