Hi all,
There some David vs Goliath players around.
More websites now offer ways around majors and i tunes.
I had a bit of search: among the ones that offer subscriptions, like Rhapsody, a few French guys launched MusicMe.com. The user interface is really simple and they have a deep and large choice of independent music. Interestingly it partners with the largest French music retailers (Fnac), which is going to launch its subscription site soon. So we'll see how long the parnership lasts!
There a new site called SpiralFrog.com that offers ad-supported legal downloads from major catalogs and labels. The site be working very soon. Beyond the name, which I like, is tghe fact that accepting a bit of ad will strongly reduce prices. The point is that ad on spiralfrog will be restricted to a few seconds at the start or at the end of the music. They have customer research showing appetite for that model. We'll see.
Pierre
