  ***Finally, most not-yet-famous groups are promoting their recordings via
their own web site...and selling them via operations like CDbaby. The
"terrestrial" radio operations still get free records from the "major
labels" (so far, anyway)...but, given net radio, sattellite radio, and
all the various low-cost (as well as illicit) sources for digital music,
old-fashioned electromagnetic radio is becoming the least-used way to
distribute one's music...

  Ok, I will admit, I don't listen to the radio...well maybe to the BBC when they broadcast something I want to record....
   
  But I do wonder about music getting to an audience. If you have your own web site a person could probably find you by doing a search, but the question is, why would they look for you. Is it all through word of moulth or your having been heard in performance?
