    BNL (Barenaked Ladies, from Canada) also has a number of remixable songs where you can download songs with the tracks split out. I assume the parent simply means that these are instrumental and acapella versions of the song. Which is really only groundbreaking if you're not familiar with hip hop, where instrumental and acapella versions of songs (and whole albums) are extremely common and unofficial remixes are made all the time, often promoted by artists themselves. Hip hop as a genre since its conception, has been squarely based on the principle of fair use.
