New Music on a Budget

I have a growing love for NoiseTrade.com. The website was created by Derek Webb of Caedmon's Call so that artists could distribute their music to fans at a lower cost. To get music from the site, you either pay whatever you want to for it, or give Noise Trade the email addresses of five friends to spread the word about the artist. Some Matthew Perryman Jones and Katie Herzig were two of my favorite finds from this source. The same music doesn't stay available on Noise Trade forever, so you can keep checking back for new stuff that's available.
