While plugging non-DRM sites, don't forget http://magnatune.com
where you only pay *IF* you want to for full flac/wav copies of
the actual CDs, or ogg or mp3. No annoying 30-second samples. A
remarkably DRM/Copy-Protection/Flash/anything crap-free site.

Suddenly I'm less interested - not because
I'm cheap, but because
this artist (or his management) is using a method of media delivery
that I don't find to be a particularly compelling purchase. Offer a
tangible CD that I can play on any machine without loss of quality
or stupid restrictions, and I'm the first to get my wallet out.
Slightly off topic as this is not CD's, but the popularity of www.bleep.com -
warp record's non DRM mp3 download for cash website - indicates that a lot of
people agree with you.
I recommend people who find DRM unsavory to support sites like this.
