In this month's issue of Wired Magazine, there is an included CD featuring songs from The Beastie Boys, David Byrne, among others. The unique thing about the CD is that all of the tracks are released under Creative Commons Licences, making them legal to share.

Now that's the spirit. Good to see that well-known artists like the Beastie Boys joined too. Right now, the CD is shipped with the Wired magazine, but after Nov. 9, people can download the songs from Creative Commons website.
