When You Dip Your Bucket Into The Stream Of Free

This is what it takes to find the good stuff (detailed on Idiotprogrammer). Two thousand two hundred albums on Jamendo listenend to in order to find the eleven best (via Catching the Wave).

11/2200 = 0.5%

That is incredible dedication to the task, but it reflects what anyone on the net suffers through in order to find great and appealing content.

It may be free as in free money but it certainly costs a lot of time to find.

Two things:
1. What is it worth to anyone to have these kingmakers out there finding the good stuff for the rest of us?
2. Flip it on its head. If you are a content creator, how are you getting noticed if you are just 1/2200?

The articles above have links to the albums but here is a best of 2010 Sampler.
