Independent music distributor CD Baby has been sold to the CD/DVD pressing service DiscMakers. Founder Derek Sivers explains why on his blog: "I chose Disc Makers as the new owner because their president Tony Van Veen has been one of my favorite people for years, and I always felt they'd do a better job of running CD Baby than I would." And Van Veen jumps in in the comments to say that he's "proud to be the keeper of the new flame"! Aww, feel the love. [sivers.org]

CD baby is a bit hippie (meaning artists get a high percentage), while DiscMakers is a corporation. Hm... what will happen?
Is Disc Makers any better now? Years ago they were infamous for overcharging on CD production, screwing up orders, etc.
