Basically you have the traditional route of working through RECORD COMPANIES/LABELS, who'll do most of the work for you if you're lucky enough. The other routes are SELF-PUBLISHING or working with an INDEPENDENT LABEL. Remember the diagram of the breakdown in money you get from sales from the different approaches? Remember the breakdown of who owns what in the music industry?
It's worth remembering if you do self-publish, the revenue streams are much smaller.
SELF-PUBLISHING
There's lots of stuff up there about this. Go hunt!
