Like a combination of Post Secret and online tip jars, DearRockers encourages people to write letters to their favorite musicians -- including compensation for unpaid-for music -- and upload images of the letters and payment for all to see.

Here's a typical example:

Dear Billy Joel,

I should tell you that, about a decade ago, I taped some of the songsfrom your "greatest hits" album off a friend’s tape. The songs "MyLife" & "Moving Out" served as the perfect inspirational soundtrackfor a 20-year old aspiring actor, just beginning her career in the BigApple.

Thanks for the boost,
Monica
