  • RIAA radar, a resource to screen music for RIAA affiliation before buying.
  • CD Baby, an independent CD distributor with an average of 91% going back to the artists.
  • eMusic, an online independent music retailer.
  • Magnatune another online independent music retailer, label, distributor, I'm not sure what, exactly, but I like it.

  • Mutopia project, a source for free sheet music.
  • Merge records, a label.
  • K records, another label.
  • Rightous Babe, Ani DiFranco's label.
