- thejosh 12y agoDerek has a great blog as well[0], and has really great stories to share, especially about how he got started with CD Baby - which includes teaching himself web development (I believe it was PHP)! [0] sivers.org
- piokuc 12y agoI highly recommend Derek's book "Anything you want" http://sivers.org/a http://sivers.org/a it's a great read. It's basically about the company he founded, CD Baby. After I read it I sent an email to Derek with a 'thank you' and he just replied the next day... He is great.
- gao8a 12y agoCouldn't agree more. Crazy how he had setup his own payment system for his merc in an age before paypal, and the good ethics toward other artists
- Brajeshwar 12y agoFYI, his Book, “Anything you want”[1], is free with Kindle Unlimited. 1. http://www.amazon.com/Anything-You-Want-Derek-Sivers-ebook/dp/B00506NRBS/ http://www.amazon.com/Anything-You-Want-Derek-Sivers-ebook/d...
