Pretty soon I'm going to re-write CD Baby from scratch.
CD Baby, including the storefront, backend intranet, members login area, and various cron scripts is made up of 91,345 lines of PHP code in 1105 files. And I did it all myself over the past 5 years.
6 years ago when I started CD Baby, I didn't know shit about programming. I just knew some basic HTML. The first version of the site was done in Microsoft FrontPage (how embarrassing! It worked hand-in-hand with the shopping cart software, though, so I had to.) When people would mail me CDs, I would open up a template in FrontPage, and cut-n-paste their info into the template, and upload their page.

When David Byrne first visited the Salvador/Bahia region in 1986, a new musical form that he never heard before amazed him. Dubbed forro, this dance-sound originally hailed from Northeastern Brazil, described as "a mixture of ska with polka" by Byrne himself. All of the album's tracks radiate a strong, positive energy, created in the most part by reggae-ish acoustic guitars, melodic accordions, and never-ending contagious rhythms. And although this musical style could be compared to America's zydeco sound, forro is intended mainly for parties. Brazil Classics 3 was compiled by Byrne himself and features the very best artists and compositions that the genre has to offer. Highlights include Luiz Gonzaga's excellent opener, "O Fole Roncou" (bordering on funk), Dominguinhos' laidback "Querubim," as well as the hyperenergetic "Festa do Interior" by Gal Costa. A superb introduction to the exotic style of forro, and highly recommended. ~ Greg Prato, All Music Guide
