Something else you can do that will really help: set up a torrent with all

The reasons that I'm *really* excited about Jamendo:
1. Lots of free content in one place, with a rating mechanism that
actually works.
2. Real growth in artists.
3. Bittorrent, which means low costs for delivery.
4. They serve Oggs! This will be *crucial* for the Fedora story.
BUT... the Ogg torrents are underserved. Help. :) Here's what you
yourself can do, right now:

I'm working to get hardware, but it could be a while before it's ready to
go -- like, a month-ish. In the meantime, I'm about to go buy a big
external hard drive, attach it to an old system at home, and run Jamseeder
myself.
I'll definitely explore doing that. I've got an aggregated up/down
100Gb monthly transfer cap, which is _tonnes_ more than I ever use
personally, so I definitely have some bandwidth and cap to share.
