New artists have grown side by side with p2p technology and they understand that p2p is the new radio.
Kellee Maize promoted her last album via FrostClick/FrostWire and received over 132,000 downloads (and counting)
InASHTON more recently had a promotion running and has already done over 82,000 downloads.
Both artists also sell their music via iTunes and by other channels. P2P has not hurt them, it’s helped expose their music to listeners that would’ve never heard them otherwise had they stuck to the “don’t listen to my music model”
In fact, Kellee Maize was open minded enough to hear our speech about what Creative Commons can do for her and she licensed her album under Creative Commons. She still selling copies on Amazon and iTunes, Her Creative Commons license gives us the permission to share and even Remix her music, all 100% legally, she keeps the rights to sell her music.
Way to go, our doors are open to promote any future work you are willing to share with the world.
After a long break in t-shirt availability, few weeks ago FrostWire has released a new t-shirt design. The t-shirts are currently available in the FrostWire store and come with 10 extra stickers and free worldwide shipping.
It’s come to our attention the situation between China and Google recently. A snappy business developer would probably be on standby to setup several web proxy sites to let Chinese users access Google and make money on advertisement. However, Web Proxies can also be hunted down by Chinese authorities and all of that traffic can easily be blocked as well.
This made us think that this would be an excellent use of the FrostWire P2P network, a network that virtually can’t be shutdown due to it’s decentralized nature.
FrostWire users outside China have unrestricted access to Google, FrostWire could implement a “P2P Google Search” to proxy keyword searches coming from China to Google servers and back.
It would be very hard if not impossible to filter this traffic which could come from nameless ip addresses from all over the world. Even if they would ban frostwire.com in China to avoid the installation of our client in China, Chinese users could still download FrostWire from thousands of mirrors and from the p2p network itself.
If the Chinese government were to completely ban all DNS requests to all Google domains, would you be willing to donate a part of your FrostWire P2P bandwidth to proxy Google Search Requests?
Hopefully China and Google will be able to resolve their issues and this won’t be necessary, but options will exist to keep offering a free internet to everybody in the planet.
