Online Music Week: Top 10 Music Search Engines, Live Concert Recordings on USB Sticks

This week’s Read/WriteWeb Files is about Online Music. And the whole R/WW family is contributing. Both AltSearchEngines and last100 have written posts on this theme.

AltSearchEngines has listed their Top 10 Music Search Engines. There were a few I’d never heard of before, so go check it out if you’re a music fan. AltSearchEngines editor Charles Knight suggests you pick your favorite artist, or song, and see which music search engine you like the best. Then go back to ASE and leave a quick comment telling them which one you liked the most and why.

Ryan Jarrett at last100 has written an interesting post about recording concerts onto USB sticks, so that concert-goers have a permanent record of the performance. Ryan says that “this is an excellent way of making money out of every live recording an artist makes ‚Äî usually only one live recording is sold on through CDs/DVDs ‚Äî and I think people would love to have a recording of the gig that they were actually at, rather than buy a recording through a record store of one random concert.”
