let's give it up for litigation!

eons ago, i and god knows how many other music purchasers filed claims to get in on the compact disc minimum advertised price antitrust ligitation. i had almost forgotten i'd even filed until last week, when i was asked by a fellow filer if i'd received my portion of the settlement was starting to be sent. i'm pleased to report that - yay! - i have finally received said settlement. a whole whopping $13 that i will probably use to - surprise, surprise! - purchase more music.

but in an effort to not completely contribute to the cycle, i will use this to purchase independent music. but who should it be? suggestions? i'm thinking perhaps bushwalla or steve poltz, as those are the two names i've heard or seen mentioned by several of my current favorites as friends and/or recommendations ... hmm. must ponder.
