File-sharer admits swapping songs (USA)

A US student who faces millions of dollars in fines for illegally swapping music files has admitted that he shared and downloaded hundreds of songs. Joel Tenenbaum is accused of copyright infringement by four recording labels for sharing tracks by artists such as Nirvana and Green Day. It is only the second music-downloading case to go to trial in the US. In the first, single mother Jammie Thomas Rassett of Minnesota was ordered to pay $1.92m for sharing 24 songs. Mr Tenenbaum is accused of using a computer at his parents' home and at his college to download and distribute digital files

Led Zeppelin's Robert Plant awarded CBE

Robert Plant was honoured as a CBE by Prince Charles in a ceremony at Buckingham Palace on Friday, letting the former Led Zeppelin singer finally one-up guitarist Jimmy Page. While Page is a member of the Order of the British Empire, Plant now outranks him with his new title of Commander of the British Empire. Plant didn't seem to think this really mattered. "If we can remember each other's phone number at this time in life it's a miracle," he said. "We're still good friends, we both enjoy a rather dark sense of humour that comes, I think, from being on the wrong side of the tracks for all those wild years." - Guardian

Clash guitarist Mick Jones has become a 'guerrilla librarian'

"The Clash's lead guitarist Mick Jones has swapped the noisy world of punk rock for a quiet life as a librarian. The lead guitarist, who was a prominent figure in the punk rock movement of the seventies and eighties, opened his Rock-n-Roll Public Library in London July 22. Based in an office near Portobello Road, west London, close to where Jones formed The Clash with Joe Stummer in 1976, the "guerrilla library" will include 10,000 items from the guitarist's private collection. Including Beatles memorabilia, Clash artwork and items the band members wore on stage, the full collection has never been seen before by the public. Jones, 54, told The Guardian the five week exhibition was a challenge to the "blandness" of other music museums. "It's a direct artistic challenge to the likes of the corporate British Music Experience," he said. Fans of The Clash will be able to view the lead guitarist's collection of records, pizza boxes from the band's tours and camouflage graffiti boots worn on stage. They may even catch a glimpse of Jones himself, who will be recording with up-and-coming bands in his studio next door for the Strummerville Foundation. Entry to the library is free"
