I don't think you should give it for free, but you could give it to someone 
in exchange for their phone number. Trade the CD for her phone number (or 
her managers) and say you would like to call her in a week or two and get 
her opinion of the CD and see it as an opportunity to network. If she really 
likes it or likes one track you might be able to send her a few more copies 
to forward to friends of hers in the right places. Perhaps your label will 
take care of the follow up and at the same time fish for more contacts. Its 
also good for small labels to have contacts (prospects) in the industry.

Of course its a long shot, but the payback could get you a lot of 
visibility.
