Over a year ago, I first published an article listing my pick of
the best free email newsletters available. Well I decided to
update that list and go into a wee bit more depth as to why I
love these ezines.
I rate the newsletters by how often and how quickly I read them.
The higher the ranking, the more often I read the ezine
beginning to end.

This ezine has climbed to the top of my list. It's still as short,
sweet, and to the point as ever. Quick inspirational tips on how
to make it in the music business. Fantastic guide to making,
keeping, protecting, and growing your music success fortune.
Lots of good musician financial information.

Still one of my favorites, Bob Bake has kept going when I just
got too tired to. It's not always my first read, but I read
every issue because Bob Baker continues to lead the pack with
great music marketing and promotion tips.
