Pardon the mess while I switch Gears
While at SXSW 2006, I was lucky enough to have the chance to meet very briefly with Matt Mullenweg (the creator of the blogging software , WordPress, that I am using to post this info). He convinced me in a matter of minutes, that open source is a much better option for distributing this project. I originally had intened to follow Shaun Inman’s approach with Mint by selling licenses for $30, but after listening to Matt and many others at this conference, it became apperant to me that I would have a far greater reach if I just gave it away.
So… I am going to do just that. In the next few hours I will be posting the source code to ThirdChord (in its beta state) here as well as on SourceForge, under the project name The Music Store. Please check back as I hope to have a lot of activity with new posts (and visual changes).
