Open source music?

Open source music? Give away the songs without copyright, sell the audio source files dirt cheap and waive the copyright. That's the idea behind Brad Sucks. Are any bands you know of doing something like this?

Tom Hanson isn't waiving copyright, but he gives away his Nick Drake-like CD, Wake of the Moon, on his website. It's pretty good - the arrangements, particularly.

Wow. Brad definitely does not suck. Great weblog, too.
