Exactly. What's wrong with money? You're still DIY because you're making the music and putting in the time yourself but you're smart enough to focus on your music instead of trying to maintain some imaginary form of integrity.
I don't know about tornpictures, but i'm liking the signing idea.

Sure, let's give credit to the bands who do it themselves, doing every little bit themselves, but the ones who are signed are getting heard more than those bands that are at home pressing 100 albums every week.
