Jamendo is a new model for artists to promote, publish, and be paid for their music. On Jamendo, the artists distribute their music under Creative Commons licenses. In a nutshell, they allow you to download, remix, and share their music freely. It's a "Some rights reserved" agreement, perfectly suited for the new century. These new rules allow jamendo to use the powerful new means of digital distribution like Peer-to-Peer networks such as BitTorrent or eMule to legally distribute albums at near-zero cost. jamendo users can discover and share albums, but also review them or start a discussion on the forums.
Albums are democratically rated based on the visitors reviews. If they fancy an artist they can support him by making a donation. Jamendo is the only platform that joins together: a legal framework protecting the artists, free, simple, and quick access to the music, for everyone. Jamendo uses the lastest Peer-to-Peer technologies, the possibility of making direct donations to the artists and an adaptive music recommendation system based on iRATE to help listeners discover new artists based on their tastes and on other criterias such as their location.
