CD Baby

If you like any of the music you are listening to, please support the artists as well as this site by purchasing CDs through the links on this page from CD Baby.

I know, CD Baby is a weird name, but they're a wonderful group of people who are the largest seller of independent CDs on the web. They love music and listen to every CD before they sell it. They only deal directly with the musicians, not corporate distributors, so the independent musicans can earn as much as $6 - $12 per CD, rather than the $1 or $2 they would normally get through a distributor.
