Hi,
I just did major facelift for the site. Here are some information (also available in the blog
After operating half a year Liberty Music Store has reached the one hundred albums milestone. Currently there are 3-5 purchases per week, so it is not exactly money making machine for anybody yet. However at least there now exists a way for Bitcoin enthusiastics to buy good music!
Recent changes
I have been working with block.io team to make Bitcoin payments as fluent as possible. After resolving some issues here and there finally I can trust the infrastructure and artists get paid in 24 hours after somebody has purchased any music.
The site has now separate buy section where one can browse music by a genre.
News letter and blog are available to follow the development of things.
Next steps
Feature-wise the site will probably receive "pay what you want" option, as many people have been requesting this. But please note that I am working on this for fun, on my free time, so I cannot really promise any hard deadlines when things go out. You are still free to poke me by email any day
People also have been asking to be able to upload images for each song. This will probably follow soon.
Has anyone actually got to sell anything from here?

Awesome.
Bought first track buy via the page. All went smooth and faster than a couple of credit or debit card purchases, not to mention Payp...delay =D
Dharma Fire's content definitely works to get my meditational state kickstarted... maybe I should visualize some BTC transactions while listening to that great track "Madhar" and so be one with the blockchain cosmos. :-P
(Madhar, track which, for not so whimcscal reasons, reminds me a little of greatly inspired artist Peter Gabriel's 'Secret world').

Posted a big update on Liberty Music Store last night.
- The site has now theme designed by a professional. This makes it one of the rare Bitcoin sites which does not look like dog poop.
- New artists have signed up. I updated the first message in the thread for the list.

This is my weekend hacking project.
Liberty Music Store - Sell songs on your homepage, receive Bitcoin
If you know any musicians who are into Bitcoin, Liberty Music Store is the place for them.
I hope to bring the barrier lower for musicians to do indie sales. This should also encourage Bitcoin purchases. The tradional payment methods have hard time to compete in this use case as the purchase process is dead simple with Bitcoin: click song, click the payment link, it opens your wallet and then you accept the purchase. The download stars automatically after this. No sign ups. No hassling with credit card numbers.
The process is simple is simple for the artists too. Upload a ZIP file containing your songs. Name your price. Then you'll receive a HTML code you can put on your site.
The project is 100% transparent, 100% open source, available on Github.
Follow in Twitter
EDIT: artist update
We have already six brave band going into Bitcoin! If you find their music interest please support their work by buying the album.
