Kudos to former Indy artist manager Bullethead (Mojo Nixon) and his compadres @ [eMusic](http://www.emusic.com/?ref=hypebot.com), one of the first online music download services, as they re-launch today with a new look but the same core goal of reaching music fans beyond the mainstream.

EMusic licenses tracks from independent labels and artists and then helps bring that music to the world. Its library of about 500,000 songs is drawn from more than 3,700 labels. Indies on other services struggle for attention, managing director Dave Packman told the Hollywood Reporter and fans can’t find them “unless they already know enough about them to look for it.”

Pricing for monthly subscriptions is in three tiers: 40 songs for $10, 65 songs for $15, and 90 songs for $20 after an initial free trial period that includes 50 songs. The tracks are recorded as MP3’s, virtually eliminating hardware compatibility problems, and are unfettered by copy protection technology.
