I'm looking at the tools that a musician can use to "self promote". eMusic - like iTunes - doesn't seem to fit this model unless I'm missing something. Why in the world neither iTunes or eMusic has an embeddable "Widget" with shopping cart functionality is beyond me. Apple just recently released a social networking iTunes widget but unless it includes ecommerce it's really not helping anyone out. I'll take a cruise through eMusic and see what's up.

How about emusic.com? I've been a subscriber for over a year and love it. From Wikipedia, "Most of eMusic's contracts are with independent labels, giving the service a reputation for primarily offering indie rock, indie pop, punk rock, jazz and classical music. eMusic highlights its offerings through a host of exclusive editorial content, along the lines of monthly "editor's picks", columns and guides. The company also cites statistics from the American Association of Independent Music that independents' market share of CD sales is 28%." Supporting emusic.com not only supports the independent artists, it intentionally does not encode the downloaded music. Also from Wiki, "Gene Rumsey, general manager of Concord Music Group, says eMusic fans are not the typical college-age file sharers. They are more rabid fans who he believes are less likely to engage in online song swapping. Serious music fans would also appreciate that musicians are actually paid for every download."
