Just discovered this new group looking to spread the free music ideal, only in it's infancy at the moment but they seem to have a good theory going on; localised, personal stuff like this is a cracking way to spread understanding about what we're all doing so best of luck to 'em.

"MUSIF is an acronym for My Urban Soundtrack Is Free.

Musif is a crazy new physical music distribution method which aims to produce high quality CD's which will be given away for free throughout the city (Dublin currently but if this takes off hopefully more cities). We aim to distribute in as many crazy ways as we possibly can including treasure hunts, leaving the CD's in obscure and unlikely places like wedging them between books in the library or sticking them behind posters or signs on a wall or along the street. These locations will be defined on the web and people can search their local cities for these discs. Droplifting has also been considered, this is in a sense the opposite of shop-lifting, instead of taking things you leave things.

MUSIF aims to release CD's of Creative Commons content, to heighten awareness of CC music both to producers and consumers of music. To this end, we are asking artists if they will release tracks for inclusion on this basis, to raise awareness of CC as a means of distribution."
