Here's my idea as a musician:
Musicians band together to form regional website co-ops. The musicians get 90% of profit (after cd & packaging and on-site ads and distribution costs), unlike mp3.com (which gets 50%, a still outrageous cut). 10% goes to people (musicians or lackeys) running the site.
I'm convinced that something like this will eliminate most of the majors, and regional indies can make deals with the co-op for wide-area and international distribution.
