Not every dollar spent on music is money donated to an evil cause.

There are plenty of people making and recording and supporting music who are worth supporting.

If you're looking to avoid music released by the RIAA http://www.riaaradar.com/ is a great resource.

And http://www.cdbaby.com/ is the best place I've found to buy independent music online.

Have you read http://www.negativland.com/albini.html ? The article is nearly 20 years old, so grain of salt and all that, but the system does appear to be set out so that the people making and recording music don't see any of your money when you buy an album.
