Night, the beloved. Night, when words fade and things come alive. When the destructive analysis of day is done, and all that is truly important becomes whole and sound again. When man reassembles his fragmentary self and grows with the calm of a tree. - Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

Wired: File Sharing Growing Like a Weed

"This is a good evolution from free peer-to-peer networks such as Kazaa," said Thomas Dolby Robertson, who recorded the '80s hit, "She Blinded Me with Science," and is now president of Retro RingTones. He's also considering using the service for his music. "It seems like such a simple idea. I wonder why they guys at Napster didn't think about this. They never really got around to implementing any fair payment mechanism."

The Digital Music Weblog: Weedshare Joins eBay Music Stores

Weedshare, an authorized download site for indie music which encourages file-sharing of its tracks, has become the latest of eBay’s pilot music stores. Technically still in beta, the Weeshare store is open and located here. Weedshare has been called “The future of the music industry,” and operates like a MLM company for digital files. If someone with whom you shared a track purchases that track, you receive a commission, and the “downline” can extend three generations.
