Here's another book to add to your library: Music 3.0: A Survival Guide for Making Music in the Internet Age for $19.99 plus free shipping. It's only the ore-order, but should have some useful infor for anybody looking to promote themselves beyond copying what Radiohead, Smashing Pumpkins, and Nine Inch Nails. Books that only cost a trip to the ATM are usually worth it as they have a morsel or two that you may have not thought of or can inspire you to try something new.
