They created a comic strip to explain copyright. It is a cute idea and colorful. it looks more like a slide show with cartoon figures.

The above link is the slide that explains the options of use (licenses) available through Creative Commons.

DRM (digital rights management) is a name for free software that must be downloaded to the computer you use to download music or books to an MP3 player.

Yes I use CDs to play music in my car. I do not own a MP3 player. I might buy 4 CDs a year. I used to buy children's music when my son was a toddler. It would help to be patient in traffic.


Musicians copyright rights will always be abused but it is good they have others to help them get credit, recognition.

I have visited Yahoo music, Rhapsody, iTunes and Napster. Yahoo is inexpensive because, it is free to listen, but if you want to download it is $6.00 month. Rhapsody's search field is the first thing you see and you don't have to hunt for the search field like other sites where the ads or their own products promotions are the predominant feature.

I looked at Pandora and i could only hear a sample of a Lyle Lovett song, to download you pay through iTUnes or Amazon. On iMeem.com you can hear the whole song rather than a sample. Free account but costs to download song through iTunes or Amazon.

Downloaded music to the library's MP3 player at home last night. It took a few steps, loading software on to computer and then trying to copy it to the player. I tried hearing the song from the MP3 but it would only show a diagram of the player and cable connection to the USB port.

Finally i disconneted the USB and it played the song.

I listened to NPR radio from my computer for a minute or two.
