==Overview==
[[Jamendo]] is a music-sharing platform aimed at promoting music uploaded by (or with the consent of) the artist. It therefore has two primary audiences:
* independent musicians wanting to promote their music on the Internet
* music aficionados wanting free music to download
==Uploading==
Uploading files to Jamendo requires their custom uploader application. There are versions for [[Windows (Microsoft)|Windows]] (but not [[Windows 98]] or earlier), [[Macintosh]], and [[Linux]]. The Linux version appears daunting at first as it is described in the SourceForge listing as "source code", but it is a [[Python]] script and requires neither compiling nor installation. (You may have to install some or all of the Python libraries upon which it depends, but this is usually easy as they are typically available from your friendly neighborhood [[repository (Linux)|repository]]).

One annoying feature is that the content of each "album, LP or EP" is set at upload time; you can't upload the files as you choose them and then later arrange them into the grouping you want. It's not clear how easy it is to delete an album after uploading, either; I will be doing further experiments to see how this works. --[[User:Woozle|Woozle]] 21:51, 2 February 2007 (EST)
