The web is a great place to store and distribute music if you're not in that mass-purchase demographic anyway. Like jazz, for example, which doesn't make the money that big name alternative rock does. I help local jazz musicians make and distribute their own CDs. They don't get rich, but it's really cheap and easy to set up, and it exposes them to a wider possible audience than they'd get just at home in Minnesota.
Check out my page at http://www.mnjazz.com/shop/ where artists sell their own CDs. I'm not involved in the transaction process, and I don't make any money off of them at all. They use a place called CCNow to handle credit card handling for them (that place charges 9% which isn't too bad) and the artists ship the stuff themselves, and receive checks from CCNow in return. Not a bad deal for somebody who wouldn't be able to do that on their own normally.
That first CD (Dean Granros), I'm most proud of, because the guy recorded it himself and mastered it to CD, and I helped him with the printing and duplication. It's amazing what you can do just with your home computer and some time. There's absolutely no need for a major label any more.
