I found a fantastic resource for digitally mobile music fans - Fina. Have you heard of it? They have a super selection of DRM-FREE tunes for download as high quality 320kbps mp3s. They’re run by Thrill Jockey and feature music on Constellation, Badman, Arts + Crafts, Sonic Youth Records, Fat Cat, Editions Mego, Hometapes, No Quarter, Rune Grammofon, Smalltown Supertown and Superjazz, Ersatz Audio, Miamsah, Mosz and Duplex Planet and so many more!
Fina-Music.com has quadrupled in content this fall and we continue to add more every day. We are especially focused on harder to find, new music and self released titles. Fina is owned and operated by Thrill Jockey Records, so from top to bottom the service is especially label and artist-oriented.
Not only that but they have streams of each song to preview and they corral a lot of information about each artist including discography, tours, promotions and such. This looks like a great resource for small labels to consider as well.
