#10 - Creative Commons Sampler Part 2

#10?? Really? That's really good! Well, this is the promised Part 2 of the Creative Commons Sampler.

I stumbled in a couple of places but I felt the podcast fit together well, and there was some very cool music played. Speaking of which, here's the playlist with artist info The Dead Rocks - One Million Dollar Theme Brad...
