Topic: Intellectual Property 12:50 am EST, Jan 11, 2004

] When you use Weed's software to buy a Weed file and then
] share the file with someone else who buys it, you'll earn
] a payment based on the sale price.
]
] 20% of the sale price goes to you, 10% of the price goes
] to the person who shared the file with you, and 5% goes
] to the person who shared the file with that person.
]
] 50% of every sale always goes to the artist or publisher
] who owns the song. The remaining 15% goes to Weed.

This is interesting. Nice things about this:
1. You get to try everything before you buy it. Its always free once. That is much better then itunes. I don't always know if I really want to buy a song. Once I've grabbed it off the warez network there is no longer a reason to buy it as a file.

2. You are financially incented to re-recommend songs to friends.

It is unfortunate that this is a Windows only.

Of course, somewhere in middle America some stupid adult is going to end up throwing a fit because there are kids dealing weed.
