I hope they get to do something along the lines of mikseri.net which is a very popular Teosto-free music source. However the biggest difference with Mikseri.net is their lack of (or on the contrary too cautious) understanding of copyrights.

They allow individuals to download music for their own use from the website but do not allow it to be distributed freely to enable more people to listen to good music - now where's the point in that? I e-mailed them about CC licences, but they never got back to me.

I hope people begin using Squinted with the same passion, but unfortunately Mikseri.net is already very popular and the amount of traffic helps a lot of newborn artists surface.

I think competition is a good thing...

(BTW, I modified your comment to have a direct URL to mikseri.net, so people can find it easier.)

Competition is definitely a good thing in this area of culture. Somebody ought to teach Teosto about these things as well, I think they're just pawns in the big game.

Ja kiitos :)
