can they hold a whole bunch of music? How does the trading start?
Well, they have some 1000MBs of space, so they'll hold several mixes of 192kpbs (or higher) mp3s.
The way we've done them in the past is that interested parties choose a topic, then someone organizes a list of everyone who wants to be involved. When it's your turn, you either email a song (plus liner notes) to the account or you can upload the song by mailing it from the account to the account. I have plenty of Gmail invites and would be glad to set up the account and help organize the first one.
That doesn't violate Gmail's TOS, does it?
Songs in lists ...

I'm reading it now. Am in awe of the project.
Huh. They don't do a thing for me.
Tommyrot, you had me at "build a killer robot" ...
I'm in. Even if killer robots aren't involved.
I'm up for the gmail thing. It does violate the TOS, I think, but filesharing is gmail's killer app so I doubt they'll mind.
I'm amazed that no-one's talked about the Arcade Fire album - apart from Jon B who dissed it - here. Right now it's the best thing I've heard all year.
