Musicians For Filesharing

The “I’m a musician and I support filesharing” project (link) has gained some attention from different media outlets. [Boston Phoenix] Basically it a is a project for musicians to literally speak out for filesharing. Halsey Burgund is asking you (if you want) to send in a recording of you reading the text. He will then do the following: (from the project page)
First of all, I will release all music under a Creative Commons license such that anyone can copy, distribute, sample etc. it for their own purposes. I will also let Downhill Battle do whatever they would like with the music.
Secondly, I plan to (with permissions, of course) post all the recordings I get for other musicians to use within their own music. It would be amazing if together we could produce a whole album of songs created from the voices of musicians speaking out for cultural freedom, artistic progress, and fairness in business practices.
Thirdly, who knows? You tell me. This is a communal project, and I am all ears.

If you know any musicians, let them know so this project can grow.
