The Weed world has been buzzing with action these last few days!

First of all, 4 new distributions sites have sprout up and have been added to weed sharing:

- DownloadWEED.com
- TTE Weed Media
- Weed Fanatic.com
- WeedWarehouse.com

The music of Rody Coronel is now featured on weedtunes.com. Songs from "Mixed Feelings" and Minister's "Power Trip" are available. Minister has been wildly popular with more than 2.5 million downloads at MP3.com and an amazing number 2 overall on MP3.com's charts, in front of major artists like Madonna, Linkin Park and Eric Clapton!

Jack Endino's WEED Cafe has been redesigned, and now features search tools that give quick access to individual artists.

The Rogues' Gallery Weed Site is now known as the Weed Stash ICP Site. Weed files from 5 new artists are currently in the work.

The rest of Aaron English's album has been Weedified. You can find the files at the top of Ars Divina Weed File Garden.

The people at Downhill Battle, known for their biting criticism of Apple's iTunes, have this to say about Weed:

It uses DRM (digital rights management), but we've been won over by the cleverness of the model. While all the other so-called business models are trying to fight or manipulate p2p, Weed takes advantage of it. And as a general rule, you can tell the shady online music ventures from the respectable ones simply by seeing whether they are honest and open about where the money goes (Apple, we're still waiting to hear from you).

Weed is looking for small working labels or highly active musician/tech types to act as Independent Content Producers in Boston, Austin, Toronto, Chicago, and Athens GA. Contact Weed directly for more details.

And here on The Weed Files, there a new skin for the season named "Halloweed", the links have been updated, and there's a new search tool in the sidebar on the right.

38 new files are available featuring no less than 15 new artists. You can now download and play selections from Atom Orr, Blind Dog, El Revengo, Evil Chopper, Fivecrown, Gazpacho, Jamie Rounds, Joe Carolus, Lila, Load Levelers, Lowrider, Shark Chum, Suzanne Brewer, The Holidays, and you don't know it yet, but you absolutely want to hear Celia Chavez's Aquamarine!

I've also added "Remember to share" to the skin list, and it will be the new default for the site.

The website is now skinnable! You can use the links in the "Skins" section of the sidebar to flip from one skin to another. Emptying your browser's cache beforehand will give better results. There's only 2 skins for now, but I plan to add a few more soon.

I've also added a bunch of links. The community is growing slowly but steadily and more and more people are talking about Weed. New content producers have signed up and launched their download sites, so there is a lot of new files available. Go to the Links page and surf around!
