Hmmm, interesting. It probably makes more sense for Julian to sell CDs directly to his existing suporters/fans (at gigs and via HH) and then using word of mouth to spread interest to new people. That way he probably gets a larger financial return for shifting fewer CDs than if he had a large distribution deal with a record company but only received the paltry royalties they pay their artists.
I think its a good thing really, I'm with Chuck D on this one. Death to the record companies!
