Re:Not what it seems?... (Score 1)

I'm a college student... all money goes towards tacos and stuff... I can definitely afford $40, but not a few thousand to make a professional CD (I've always burned my own and stamped my own artwork onto it).... I come from a house of musicians, my father is a professional musician, so I had access to a professional studio to record... plus, I'm a singer/songwriter (read: solo act), so I don't have a "set band" (outside of my recordings, like Sarah McLachlan or Tori Amos) that is going to all pitch in for an album...

A digital-only distribution would be perfect for someone like me. If iTMS and others thought I sucked, they wouldn't have to accept me.
