Partly via Waxy.org comes news that Archive.org has some excellent new features (or maybe this is me just noticing them).
First up is the new movie archive featuring such classics as Night Of The Living Dead, to download for free. Most of the films are extremely old, but the price is right.
Also excellent is the new Live Music Archive, featuring full live sets in the shorten format. Although I hadn’t heard of most of the bands, it has some hidden gems like 19 Tenacious D sets. For free. Take that record industry fools.
I had previously never heard of the shorten format, but do a quick google search for it and everything you need to know about listening to, creating and decompressing .shn files becomes available.
