Trax4u, free music for free people

If you are used to check out new music on the web you'll know that their beside the usual paid music download sites also is a lot of free music. Music under the Creative Commons licenses is free to download and share. Trax4u not only provides a space for free and unrestricted music available for download it also gives you the opportunity to find the really good trax which are released under the Creative Commons licenses.
The "recent" page lists details of the latest tracks, with a Flash-based player for each one, album art and license icons. You can listen to, comment and vote on listed tracks (using the "I like it!" button), then submit new ones. Those amassing the highest scores are listed on the Hits page. (Digg users should feel particularly at home with the interface.)
Trax4u is packed with features:
  • The circular play button next to each track title is a mini Flash music player - click it and you can listen to the whole song.
  • Want to listen to everything on the current page? Either use the long player bar at the top or click "m3u" on the top-right to download a playlist. (You can also add tunes to Webjay with the "playlist" button)
  • The Tags page lets you browse by genre. (Remember to tag appropriately when you're adding a tune!)
...and their is much more. Find the really good stuff, participate, comment, link your own music at Trax4u.com.
The application is a clone of Fabricio Zuardi's CCHits and runs on Ning.com which means that you are free to clone it youself edit the source code etc...
Thank you Fabricio on a fantastic piece of work.
