Meta Music

Gofish bills itself as "the largest, deepest reaching, and most expansive search platform for digital media in the world". What should hypothetically happen on a Gofish search is that a search for an artist such as returns aggregated results from several different online outlets for audio, video and ringtones/ringtunes. Both digital downloads as well as physical product are included in the search results.
If Gofish can successfully index content from the growing number of providers without overwhelming consumers with search options (keeping it simple is key) it could potentially provide a useful pathway to grow the digital music business, particularly if the platform is simple to deploy on artist websites.  How great would it be if every Lenny Kravitz fansite added Gofish so that purchasing the growing array of digital music (and related assets such as phone wallpapers) were just one click away?
