Another good way to use CDBaby is to search for a song. You need to use Google to do this, since CDBaby's own search feature doesn't provide for it. In Google, if you're searching for, say, BLOW THE MAN DOWN, you would set up your Google search argument as
"blow the man down" site:cdbaby.com
It's even easier if you have the Google toolbar installed.
I like CDBaby because it gives longer sound samples (2 minutes) than other web sites like amazon.com, barnesandnoble.com, and allmusic.com, that only give 30 seconds to one minute. That's usually enough to give you at least one whole verse and chorus. That's very useful if you need a quote to do further searching.
