Peter Gabriel Wants You to Re-Shock the Monkey
PreacherTom writes "The party line for the music industry has been clear: discourage music downloads at all cost. However, singer Peter Gabriel is taking things in a different direction. In order to promote his own label, he is actually encouraging people to not only download his music, but also adapt it into something more modern. In doing so, he actually posted a sample pack of Shock the Monkey consisting of vocals and other pieces of the original multitrack recording. Some in the music business would call this the commercial equivalent of hiring kidnappers to babysit. In actuality, Gabriel is pleased with the results."
Rap and Hip Hop are valid genres of musical experesion, you sir are an asshole.

Do What Now ???
Oh Lord! Another one. The only thing you've produced is a long post that no one would pay to read. When you're actually a content creator that people will pay. THEN you can start telling us what copyright, and content creation is all about. Not some unknown with a hidden agenda.
