Soundclick logs 200K mp3s
p2p news / p2pnet: New music is what it’s all about and, what it’s always been about. Without it, no Golden Oldies.
The Big Four record labels spend millions to make sure you only see their mass-produced, over-priced cookie-cutter ‘product,’ and only theirs.
And that’s the way the Big Four – Sony BMG, Vivendi Universal, Warner Music and EMI – are trying to keep it by suing their customers into being good little consumers.
But the Net and p2p changed that and now anyone, anywhere, can showcase his or her music online and to drive the point firmly home, the Soundclick music community passed the 200,000 mark for Creative Commons-licensed mp3s over the weekend.
And that’s a whole lot of music, as Mike Linksvayer posts on the CC site, going on:
"Soundclick doesn’t offer CC-specific search or feeds, which rather points out an opportunity for aggregators.
"Forunately Google and Yahoo! have both indexed the Soundclick site rather well. Click on one of the previous links or type site:soundclick.com into the search form on the CC find page, which allows you to search Soundclick using Google or Yahoo!’s CC-enabled search.
"That’s a whole lot of music."
Tune in.
