I believe Sony is getting ready to implement something like this. It is inevitable that the industry co-opt the internet distribution model. Your only other option is to cruise mp3.com; in addition to some incredible unsigned talent out there (or at least non-national talent), lots of big-time artists release material on mp3.com.

Unfortunately, mp3,com just recently cut the number of songs by any artist down to three. I used to find whole albums there, up for the grabbing. They even chopped my bands songs down to three from five. So much for being generous.
I use Direct Connect with a group started on a music board. It helps out quite a bit with deciding what new music to buy. I have saved myself from buying a few stinkers. Peer to peer is the only way to get quality sounding downloads. Kazaa and WinMX are horrible. Not to mention, Kazaa is a virus playground.

Those bloody PIGS. I haven't checked my artist page in MONTHS (well, ok. Years), and I find that they knocked me down to the three songs that get almost no traffic.
I knew there was a reason I didn't bother much with them, anymore.
Well, that and them instituting that stupid "artist cash" rather than cut me a friggin' check once a quarter.
