I am on iTunes and Pandora with my partner.

We have made a decent penny without ANY involvement from a record label.

Life is simple... We pay a low fee to have our music hosted on Pandora and iTunes. People on Pandora like our stuff and buy it and we get the money... No record label gets one red cent.
