Slashdot | Pearl Jam Releases Video Under Creative Commons | Posted by ScuttleMonkey on Saturday May 20, @11:58PM from the popular-to-be-free dept. | Music | minitrue writes:

Pearl Jam released their first music video in quite a while under a Creative Commons license allowing anyone to “legally copy, distribute and share the clip” for noncommercial purposes. Creative Commons thinks this may be the first video produced by a major label ever to be CC-licensed. So although the file is only available as a free download via Google Video through May 24, fans can continue sharing it online themselves in perpetuity.”

Telecommunications and networking are truly turning the world on its ear. Those of us working in communications fields would do well to keep our eyes and ears open for events such as this, as well as advances/changes in technologies in general. -RH
