One of my favorite Australian hip hop groups The Herd have just released their new single using a 'pay what you want' model. The song is available here and is the precursor to their new album due to drop in the middle of the year. According to facebook someone paid them $8 for the single - way above the recommended price of $1.00 and the minimum price of $0.10.
You can also hear the song on SoundCloud (funny I have been thinking about writing about SoundCloud) - here.

Welcome
Welcome to the OCA Research Review weblog.
Here I will be posting comments on the research I have been doing for my PhD thesis as well as any interesting articles or websites I have accessed. My main area of research at the moment relates to the Internet and the regulation of digital music, however I read widely on many issues relating to cyberspace and hope to refer to these as they arise. My thesis is on the state of the internet and the potential for political music to act as an agent for social change.
I also ran the OpenContentAustralia weblog where I listed much of the online material I read each month on cyberlaw but it has been put on hiatus due to work commitments.
