I value freedom a great deal, and if one of my songs someday happens to contain visceral allusions to semen on someone's face, or a redneck antagonist killing an Asian character (would that make my song racist toward Asians, or toward rednecks?) then that's the way it's going to be. Jamendo can kiss my American ass as well. I don't think impeaching this one service's terms of use impeaches the concept as a whole, though. > And you really believe that if you want you can administer a > service like jamendo avoiding any kind of censorship without > considering any legality issue? They can do what they want, but I'd rather just put my music out there on the web. It's not like it's going to be popular enough to cost much in terms of bandwidth... I use way more bandwidth with my Mandrake RPM repository than any of my bits of music have ever used. Marketing can be done through things like myspace or CC music aggregation sites or whatever's replaced mp3.com (note: talking about marketing my own music here, not marketing free music as an ideal which I think will run up against people's actual reasons for listening to music.)
