Free music from Stanford University
Here's something I haven't seen before. Stanford University are currently offering 69 music tracks and 30 classical concerts for free via the iTunes Music Store [iTunes link]. The tracks include performances by Stanford students, faculty, alumni and guest artists.It's a great idea, and I'd like to see other performance spaces follow suit, from universities to museums to theatres (especially my old school, Berklee College of Music in Boston). Check it out.
Thanks, Asif!

From the Stanford press release: Today, the university will publicly debut a project called Stanford on iTunes, providing Stanford-related audio content via the iTunes Music Store, Apple's popular music jukebox and online music store. Stanford on iTunes will give alumni and the general public free access to a wide range of Stanford-specific digital audio content. http://itunes.stanford.edu/
