In 1996 CDFreedom.com began serving the needs of a new breed of small business
owners: independent artists. By making it easy for the artist to sell their
music directly to their fans, major label music industry began systematically
buying up "indies" and essentially shutting down the development of new
artists. We've become home to many exciting new and legacy artists, and fans
have come to rely on the quality of music they'll find here.
We've grown quite organically on just two things: supporting artists and
serving fans. There have been many competitors who've replicated our system,
but none that truly strive to serve the working artist the way we do. Our
average commission is $2.50! This is one of the lowest in the country. We make
sure the artist gets as much money as possible so they can go on creating and
making a living from their art. We are one of the few online music stores that
bring you ALL the artist's products including, CDs, DVDs, MP3s, t-shirts,
tickets, posters and other merch.
There are no customer accounts at CDFreedom and no minimum order. We do not
keep any customer credit card numbers on file, and we do not sell customer
lists. The only person who sees your information is our shipping department and
the artists you purchased products from.
In 2005 the original developers of CDFreedom, Artist Development Associates,
merged with Trilby Systems to form nimbit inc. Founders of both companies are
on board pushing the limits of providing complete career control for
independent artists. CDFreedom is part of the "nimbit retail" program, one of
nimbit's many solutions for an artist to manage their growing business.
