Promotion?
Does anyone have any good pointers about how to point people towards your music? Small-scale, cheap/free things preferred at present - just wondering what's worked for other people.

Just having a card/demo/something ready for those times when you're getting on with someone and they happen to be into music too. Personality will go a long way, but just slipping someone your card after five minutes of chat trying to get noticed by someone will be BAD. 
Goo luck, man. Try other forums, local bars, studios and whoring yourself to tramps. Sometimes, it work out (apart from the tramps, maybe that's me?)

I've been featured as Editors' pick on their main page this summer (there were three picks over a total of more than 80.000 artists) without paying a cent. Simply, they've listened to a song and found it good enough.
They seem very fair.
If you're doing it for promotion, a site that has both estabilished and unknow artists with the same privileges is good.
I've also tried to register to http://www.15megsoffame.com. I haven't received any email to confirm my subscription, and I can't login beacuse my account is not confirmed.
So I can't say much about it.
But, at the moment, I'm really happy with music.download.com.
I've also been on the old mp3.com for more than a year. Gave up when they started asking money for services they were giving for free when I started.
As a musician with an hacker culture, I don't like the concept "the more you pay, the more you're visible".
