You've probably all seen this already, but I'm suprised I haven't seen
it mentioned here yet... y'all could probably have some fun with this:

"Creative Commons and WIRED recently went public beta with CC Mixter
which is a Commons pool for music samples and remixes. The site creates
a tree of remix/sources inline with every entry and has
Flikr/del.ciou.us style tagging. The launch includes two remix contests
and features samples and cuts put in the Commons by Chuck D., Beastie
Boys, David Byrne, Danger Mouse and tons more. The winners end up on
Chuck D.'s next CD and a CC promo disk and there's already been some
pretty astounding entries. Of course every upload is under a CC license
that allows legal sampling including contest entries and the big name
source tracks and samples. I took over the coding for the site from
Lucas Gonze (of WebJay) who did a proof of concept. We're currently
working on making the site source part of the CC Tools open source
project. That version will support remixing of any media including
images, videos and Flash mods."
