pay the artists for OOP CDRs

[AmirBagachelles]

The Braxton gift thread reminded me that I was recently able to purchase some amazing OOP titles from another artist, at $15 each. (No names used here.) I would recommend you contact artists directly and ask about the availability of their out of print, and sometimes rare work. In this case, I got beautifully signed CDRs, nicely scanned color artwork, and the pleasure to compensate this artist directly. Way way cool.

What if the artist is dead?

I'm thinking more in terms of financially deserving living artists whose catalog of good works may be unavailable for reasons out of their control. But circumstances vary -- e.g. if there's a Mingus you have to have, go for it, send your money to Sue.
