Jan, note that that URL is not actually MTV, nor does the link to Metallica's site actually link to Metallica's site. This is satire.

This URL shows a recent example on how using litigation as a tool of media business has gone completely nuts. Owning musical chords?!

We should also thank OpSound's Sal Randolph for making things like this happen. CC needs more community-building pioneers like her to succeed.

Watch her site -- hundreds of sounds and songs licensed. More good things are sure to happen.

Excellent tune! Great example of how CC is in spirit the way to go with regard to copyright laws. If we are going to call something "intellectual property" in our society, then the creator(s) are the only ones who should have a say in where or how a work is used/distributed... not the RIAA or some corportate middleman taking advantage of the current copyright laws via DMCA to steal the art/speech from the people!

Support local and independent music!

It is a great piece of music, and I must agree that its a perfect example of what CC can do.
