En het werkt direct in de muziekplayer die ik veel gebruik.quote:Artists Share 50,000 Free Music Albums on BitTorrent
With more than 300,000 tracks and 50,000 albums published since its inception, the music publishing website Jamendo holds one the greatest libraries of free music online. A great success story that is in part powered by BitTorrent. From the start the site embraced P2P downloads to save resources and because artists and fans appreciated it.
When we first discovered Jamendo more than 5 years ago the site was hosting 500 albums, mostly from French artists.
Fast forward to today and Jamendo features work from 38,000 artists from all around the world, who together have published 315,000 tracks across 50,000 albums spanning a wide range of genres. Impressive statistics that easily beat some established record labels.
Jamendo is also one of the early advocates of using BitTorrent to share free music. According to Jamendo’s Sylvie de Lannois, one of the main reasons to support P2P technology was because the artists thought that it was a good platform to promote their work.
