Grey Tuesday
Wondering what's going on here? Just a little protest on teh internets. From BoingBoing:
The album really is stupendous, and highly boingboing - I've noticed old favorites like George Bush Doesn't Like Black People and I am the Doctor in there. It's worth downloading on musical merit alone. But the larger issue here, the freedom of expression through remixing other artists' works, makes downloading important.
Today is Dean Grey Tuesday, a net-wide day of protest over Warner Brothers attempt to censor a stupendous noncommercial mashup album called American Edit that remixes Green Day's album American Idiot.
