Gizmodo, the gadget guide. So mesmerized by shiny new toys. It's unnatural.

Economy of Scales: Tune Plug

In Peripherals: Storage

tuneplug_photo.jpgWhile record labels and publishers are locked in lawsuits and legal hair-pulling, independent artists are using Creative Commons (CC) licenses as a new publicity tool: keep your copyright, but let consumers copy or even sample your song. Your next Flash Drive might even have albums on it (or is that the other way around?): indie online label Magnatune and manufacturer Hana Micro have loaded up the TunePlug USB drive with ten albums under a CC license. The first 'volume' starts at $19.99; the $69.99 512MB model has all ten albums on it pre-loaded. More details on CDM.
