Building Playlists Of Free MP3s

from the hey,-look,-not-all-MP3s-are-evil dept

Despite what the recording industry would have you believe, there actually are a lot of bands who release tracks as MP3s for free online, as a way of promoting their music. A while back Lucas Gonze came up with the idea of helping people create web-based playlists for such free MP3s and ended up creating Webjay. I had played around with it a couple months ago when he launched it, but haven't had much time since. It looks like many others, though, have started populating it with some interesting playlists. The idea is not to include unauthorized MP3s (and, in fact, those lists get taken down), but as a way to help promote bands who realize the benefit of offering free MP3s online.
