The ways you mention are basically just corporations with extra steps.
Edit: I'm just saying -- our music is practically all funneled from a corporation at several steps in the process of it getting to us, even if the final step is a friend telling you about it. And yes I know there are plenty of obscure/indie/non-commerical bands but those don't account for very much of the totality of music that gets listened to.
