I just finished listening to today’s Daily Source Code, in which Adam Curry introduced his latest project, the Podsafe Music Network. The site aims to pair independent music artists with podcasters looking for music that is legal to play in their episodes.
I signed up as a podcaster to check it out. The site is in beta, so let’s keep that in mind, but here are some initial thoughts:
- I can’t seem to figure out how to download music! I see the play button, but no link to download. I tried adding it to my playlist, thinking I could get a download link there, but I get an SQL error everytime I try to load the playlist page.
- The site really needs some introductory text, even just a small paragraph.
- The first sponsor for the site is Absolut, which is kind of cool. Though they are not “sponsoring” the site, they are “flavoring” the site 😉
- Umm two words guys: Creative Commons.
Why not license everything under Creative Commons? It’s entirely appropriate, and works perfectly for things like this. Seems to me that not including CC support is a major oversight.
I’ll keep an eye on the site, and see how it evolves.
