Internet Archive – downloading without breaking the law!
Share this article:
The Internet Archive site is a fascinating project with a number of strands. There’s plenty for me to be absorbed by here. The archive has freely accessible material in a number of areas. There are films, live concerts and poetry recitals. There are 10,000 shows stored in the live concert archive. I have to admit to not having heard of most of the bands featured, but there are over 2,700 Grateful Dead concerts if that is your thing.
There’s material from Allen Ginsberg in the Naropa Audio Archives. There’s so much to look at and download here and it is all legal, since this is a project initiated by and including the US Library of Congress and the Smithsonian as collaborators.
