1:18:10 – This is a compilation album of Creative Commons-licensed music I found on Jamendo.com. I released it about four months ago on Archive.org, but I’ve been listening to it a lot lately and I decided to release it here as a single combined MP3 file so more people could hear it. I love this album, and to me it shows that Creative Commons music, released in the spirit of sharing, can be just as good as draconian copyright-shackled commercial music.
