Better by far to have each band set up their own website, and allow people to buy DRM-free music from them directly. That way, fans of the music will be supporting the people who make the music they like, rather than giving a record company most of the money and the band a pittance. It will change piracy from an act against a faceless corporation to an act against an individual, which most of us are reluctant to do. Whenever a record industry person moans about how this money must be made "to support the artists", you should ask yourself (or them, if you happen to be close by) exactly how much goes to the artist in question, and how much to executives who have never had a creative thought in their lives.
