Looks like the Freesound project passed a milestone this week, and got itself some notice at Slashdot into the bargain.
They've now got 10,000 samples under the creative commons license, free for people to download and use...

Congrats to Bram and everyone else involved...

"In some cases there is an object called red that contains everything that is red. In much the same way a pot is a plate."

There have been other such sample sites which were closed down because some anonymous and ignorant people had submitted copyrighted material. I would use such a site a lot if I could be absolutely sure this would never happen - but I don't see how that can be possible....

no you misunderstood - I wouldn't use it because I could never be absolutely sure the material wasn't copyrighted....

yes you're probably right - it's just the slight uncertainty which is everpresent - maybe I'm just neurotic

Congratulations to Bram, Sam and the rest!! Had to explain to my GF that /. is the geek equivalent of being on the front page of the Times.
