Anyone ever shop at CD BABY ?

[roscoe]

Below is an example of the email they send you after you place an order. Weird.

****************************************************************************************

Your CDs have been gently taken from our CD Baby shelves with
sterilized contamination-free gloves and placed onto a satin pillow.

A team of 50 employees inspected your CDs and polished them to make
sure they were in the best possible condition before mailing.

Our packing specialist from Japan lit a candle and a hush fell over
the crowd as he put your CDs into the finest gold-lined box that
money can buy.

We all had a wonderful celebration afterwards and the whole party
marched down the street to the post office where the entire town of
Portland waved 'Bon Voyage!' to your package, on its way to you, in
our private CD Baby jet on this day, Sunday, January 21st.

I hope you had a wonderful time shopping at CD Baby. We sure did. Your picture is on our wall as "Customer of the Year". We're all
exhausted but can't wait for you to come back to CDBABY.COM!!


Thank you once again,

Derek Sivers, president, CD Baby
the little CD store with the best new independent music

I have ordered from CD Baby often, they offer music from independent artists. Most artists/bands are very good, but haven't hit the mainstream media yet.
Another good source for Cd's is "CD Universe" or www.eshoptheworld.net, which is a large site offering music and other items.
