The Pirate Party of Canada is off to a nice start with a Creative Commons torrent tracker. They write, "Today [Sept. 25th] marks the launch of the PPCA's Creative Commons torrent tracker. We have launched this as a way way of showing the world that P2P technology can be used to benefit artists, and to show artists how to use it as a marketing tool. If Filesharing would be considered marketing by artists, then it would enable them quick, cheap and easy access to a global distribution network. The current distribution model is dead, the market must evolve." Via Michael Geist.
