Yeah, going forward that'll be more and more prominent. Travolta's wealth apparently came from his foresight in getting a portion of the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack royalties, and They Might Be Giants negotiated to retain the electronic distribution rights for their music from their standard retail distributor. Trent Reznor released the basic data for one of his songs a ways back and encouraged the fans to make their own remixes.
It's a wonderful time to be an artist, a fan, and a gamer - technologically speaking we have so much power. And it scares the RIAA shitless.
