[merged] Sony frees music for file-sharers

Basically, the deal is this - you'd pay 20-odd quid per month for top quality broadband, about the same as BT, and with that you'll have filesharing access to the back-catalogues and new material of indie like Beggars, XL, V2, Ninja and more.

Re: What a great idea
Hmmm, sounds like not a bad idea as a freebie incentive. Depends how good it is and wether they get a good back catalogue of music.

Re: Sony frees music for file-sharers
Perhaps a merge with this thread is appropriate?
(Not much has been posted there, but it links to the actual ISP)

Re: Sony frees music for file-sharers
sorry I did look but the title 'What a good idea' didn't ring a bell.

It's good to have a link to the beeb article anyway
It looks like a very interesting development BTW.

Re: [merged] Sony frees music for file-sharers
I think that this could possibly be the kind of way content creators earn their shekels in the future.
If they can get more labels - and perhaps even film distributors - to join in this could be huge
