iRATE Radio Application reads MP3 files
to identify CC licensed songs
02/10/2004 02:41 AM

iRATE Radio, an open-source application that sends users free-legal MP3s through its radio client, is now able to read the ID3 tags of MP3 files to identify Creative Commons license information. Enabling this kind of feature is exactly why Creative Commons put forth its MP3 embedding strategy many months ago, which defines a standard way to embed Creative Commons metadata in the ID3 tag of an MP3. Our hope was that file-sharing networks, and applications like iRATE, would read the ID3 tags, and tell users if there was a Creative Commons license attached. This way, users could feel assured to trade these MP3s online, or even make remixes of them. Check out some screenshots of the CC enabled iRATE Radio application.

iRATE has yet to enable the second part of our MP3 strategy, where MP3s are validated through an automatic web page verification process. (Validation can be done manually, though). This step is important because it prevents people from making fraudulent license claims about the MP3s.

Beyond being able to read ID3 tags, iRATE Radio has a catalogue of over 46,000 MP3s it can send you. It's also really smart in that it enables users to rate songs and then sends you more songs based on your ratings and preferences. We hope that more applications follow the lead of iRATE!

Magnatune on iRATE radio


Magnatune on iRATE radio 04/23/2004 11:09 PM

iRATE radio has placed 3,000 CC-licensed tracks from the non-evil Magnatune label into "rotation." iRATE is a collaborative filtering system for music. The first song new users have the opportunity to rate is Monsters from Magnatune artist Beth Quist.

A future iRATE skin will include CC license indicators in the main display. Here's a sneak preview sent to us by iRATE's creator, Anthony Jones:


30,000 songs licensed on Soundclick in

30,000 songs licensed on Soundclick in

08/11/2004 09:11 PM

Soundclick, one of the Internet's biggest music community sites, prominently integrated our license engine just one month ago. In that time, over 30,000 tracks have been licensed under Creative Commons licenses. Genres vary, and many of the tracks allow derivatives, so break out your music editing software and mix away.

My pal hugh Spenser is a hell of a science fiction writer, and he's got a passion for the golden age of science fiction radio dramas. He wrote a six-part series of radio plays about the early days of science fiction fandom, which were produced by the wonderful Shoestring Theater and aired last summer on NPR. Hugh and Shoestring have released all six epiisodes as MP3s under a Creative Commons license that allows for the noncommercial redistribution -- give them a listen, they're way boss.

Cambridge SoundWorks Mick Fleetwood
Signature Model Twelve Speakers


Cambridge SoundWorks Mick Fleetwood
Signature Model Twelve Speakers
08/18/2004 08:38 AM

mick_signature.jpg imageWhen I go into the local middle- and high-schools each week for my "Gizmodo: Talkin' Teen" heart-to-heart rap session, the number one inquiry I get from the kids during our Q&A is, "Yo, when is Mick Fleetwood going to endorse a set of Cambridge SoundWorks portable speakers?" And I chuckle a little then, and walk over and my put my hand on their shoulder, and try to explain to these mixed up young persons that despite their enduring affection for Fleetwood Mac's seminal 1977 release Rumors, the pressures of Big Media conglomerates have persisted to keep Mick out of the speaker game. Then we all smoke a big doob because I'm down.

But next week, when some young gangbanger inevitably asks me that very same question, I'm going to look them right in the eyes and whisper into the mic, "Today, my young peer. Today."

Cambridge SoundWorks has not mentioned if it is appropriate to call the $400 Mick Fleetwood Signature Model Twelves' included amplifier the "Stevie Mixer," probably because that's sort of lame.
