These guys seem to be doing ok with Free Music
 

You can watch and listen to music videos or upload your own all for free They were saying on the TV that they have inline ads in the videos which generate revenue thats why all the music is free and legal.. So there is money in Free.......

Wow that has tones of free music on it

the internet music industry has blown past torrents and piracy the last few years. it has really evolved.

Welcome to the interwebs. More free stuff to put Economy down and under.

You can become a VIP member by paying £3.00 per month which gets rid of thier ads ..Wonder if this would work on an adult site

they have just moved to a broadcast model like tv and revshare with the artists. it would blow you away some of the traffic and communities these sites have.

Yes it has I only heard about this site on the BBC News Click Program and its all legal.
Sites like that will also help new artists to get their music out to fans

yeah i was doing some research last year and it blew my mind how much it evolved. and all legit.

can't help but feel porn is stuck in 2006-7 which in internet years is the industrial age.

I was looking at their music video views and the views are just crazy ..
1,044,417 Views for one metalica vid thats up there with YouTube if not more

I agree :2 cents:

i think they scrape google results like opendirectories to see .mp3s linked same thing seeqpod did.

Grooveshark is awesome. I've watched it evolve over the last couple of years. Now you can save playlists, and it has a built in Pandora style music finder. I listen every day.
