where to get advice about the music biz?

Hi gang, I used to be a regular here at Cakewalk forums a few years ago back before the Coffee House burned down (has it been that long? ). I know there are a lot of seasoned, experienced & knowledgeable folks here, and I was wondering if you guys know of a forum on the internet where I can go to get some hard advice on how to proceed past the artistic phase into the world of lawyers, paperwork & business.

I picked up some good advice at this thread:
http://forum.cakewalk.com/tm.asp?m=882568

But I still have a lot of questions, and CW's forums seem to be geared more toward a technical studio level. What I'd like to find is a place where industry professionals offer guidance & advice to people who have already created the finished product. Does any such place exist?

Thanks

    Check out All You Need to Know About the Music Business by Donald S. Passman. It contains a lot of good information and it is well written.

    Thanks Kicker... yah I forgot to mention: even though I asked about an internet forum, I'd love to hear your suggestions of books, video tutorials or workshops also.

    Btw I may be ignorant, but I'm not a total newbie (been schlepping away for almost 20 years now) so feel free to suggest the heavy stuff.
