Best music of 1900s-1920s as MP3sFoldedSpace has ripped and posted a rare collection of the best music from 1901-1920s and posted it, along with commentary. These public domain songs are delightful, and feature some of my favorite artists, like Billy Murray, who sounds a little like Bugs Bunny, and even an original recording of Sousa's band. The CD version of this goes for as much as $190 on Amazon and eBay, but since the music is in the public domain, it can be freely redistributed. (from boing boing)
From Zero to Hero: "Much loved by generations of children and adults alike, Tintin's intrepid adventures are more than simple cartoons. In their mastery of plot, subtlety of themes and depth of characterisation, Hergé's books deserve to sit alongside some of the greatest works of literature."(Guardian UK)
