| Information on Shorten format, music trading,
and free software for Linux/Windoze/MacOS
can be found at etree.org
They really have good info on legitimate trader-friendly music trading, CD-burning, Shorten music format, bands that allow trading, becoming a server, etc. |
I could repeat the info, but I think that they say it well, so for now look to this excellent resource. |
| Bands That Allow Taping | |
| Other tune resources:
GDlive.com -Grateful Dead shows philzone.org -Phil & Friends shows Mason's Children -trading vines & more Jamz -other bands, at Ibiblio also |
FurthurNet -peer-to-peer file sharing for trading-friendly bands. I haven't gotten a chance to use yet, new spin on a concept! (may still be in beta) |
| There are plenty of other sites out there, although some must give out limited numbers of logins because of bandwidth limits. Many also have public logins with a set number of users that may connect at once. These are still non-commercial, free sites though, and promote trading! The mailing lists at etree.org are a good guide to these servers! | |
| For setlist info, try Setlist.com
-search setlists, many bands
or a good book for Grateful Dead is DeadBase -www.deadbase.com The DeadBase site also allows you to search setlists (for GD) Annotated Grateful Dead Lyrics is a great site, with some interesting interpretations and essays too. |
