DIGITAL RESOURCES: Good Copyright-FREE Music

Are you having trouble finding good copyright-free music to use in videos and multimedia presentations? Try Jamendo and Opsound. Both provide music that has been licensed through the Creative Commons, which provides different levels of licensing. All the songs on these sites can be used so long as the artist is given credit, and you don't commercially profit from the project you create. Both sites contain thousands of songs in dozens of genres, but you probably need to do some pre-screening of music for your students at school, or potentially need to do some downloading at home because of in-district filtering. Investigate these sites for yourself and share your thoughts.
