Swarfendor - there is no reason whatsoever for this post to be removed - Jamendo hosts entirely free music which is unbound by regulations.
Note - I just noticed you said proposed European legislation. As I am not European I am not aware of what this entails but I can see no reason why they would seek to curtail free (as in freedom, not beer!) music.
If they DO pass such laws then that is a progression towards American culture, which as far as I'm aware Europe is strongly against!

If this post gets removed I accept that but it is partly valid as there is a direct link to jamendo.com in rhythmbox if memory serves me right - this could be put under threat by proposed European legislation. Normally I would email this to people, but that is not possible on this forum - do spread the news to your friends who may also like the wonderful offerings of jamendo.com - I used my 'nic' when signing the petition but you don't have to donate when it asks for it - the world is still in recession but if you do have some spare spondoolas then feel free to donate. Here is the general gist of it:Hi,
I wanted to draw your attention to this important petition that I recently signed:
"Help Jamendo Support Artists' Interests!"
http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/h...sts_interests/I really think this is an important cause, and I'd like to encourage you to add your signature, too. It's free and takes just a few seconds of your time.
Thanks!

Do you have an updated link to the petition? It is broken
Thanks
