Interesting concept, isn't it? I just sort of stumbled across this page for legal music downloads today. According to the about page:
On jamendo, the artists distribute their music under Creative Commons licenses. In a nutshell, they allow you to download, remix and share their music freely. It's a "Some rights reserved" agreement, perfectly suited for the new century.
Amazing idea!

* as always with free things (and sometimes with paid-for things), there is no guarantee about the quality of music on this website, and not everybody will like every song, blah blah blah etc.
