It's nice to know that it's under public domain (other parts under Creative Commons License). I just wanted to make a comment, a while ago I discovered a platform for streaming and downloading "open source" music: Jamendo http://www.jamendo.com/en/ it seems to be quite big in France but not in the UK. Music can be downloaded for free (legally) and artists license their work under Creative Commons. Don't know if Jamendo synchronises metadata with Music Brainz, they probably do. I think Jamendo is a very powerful platform for independent artists to distribute free music having their work protected under a license. Dear Tom
