This allows you to use the music however you please (including in commercial projects) so long as you give credit. Since last month we have had over 3000 album downloads. We accept donations, and we have a name-your-own-price CD; which is a unique concept where you can name your own price (starting at cost price) for a CD. We have had some orders and heaps of positive feedback. The album is political post-industrial rock with an interesting mix of classical instruments, guitars, electronic beats, and a dash of aussie hip-hop. You can download the whole 11 track album for free at our website. http://www.politicsapocalypse.com Last month I released Politics Apocalypse, a full length album using the creative commons licence attribution 3.0.

The RIAA is trying to control something that has been going on for so long (file sharing), it would take them many years to break the habit amongst a very large portion of society. I think all people should embrace file sharing, not shun it. And as for actually buying an album: I buy them all of the time. Whether I get a C.D. burnt from a friend, or I download it, I will eventually go out and buy the album. Many of my friends do the same thing. Dude, I agree with you 100%.
