On july 1 Last.fm launched the "Artist Royalty Program". This lets artists on Last.fm accrue royalties whenever their songs are streamed. This affects only independent artists, ie. musicians not affiliated with a label or royalty collection agency.
If you haven't done already, upload your music to Last.fm, otherwise head straight to the Music Manager, to sign up. But remember, it's only rock'n'roll.
