Music sharing goes underground

Music sharing seems to set to break free from the shackles of the Internet.

Undersound is planning a system, which will allow travelers on the London underground to share the music on their cellphones via a bluetooth network. So in addition to a full nostril of smelly body odour, you can also get a new tune or two from your fellow train commuter.

The idea for Undersound is that people can transfer songs via Bluetooth (using public domain, non-copyrighted, royalty-free or creative commons-friendly music, of course) to a "transfer point" at a particular station. Then others can come along with their own mobile phones and pick up some new tunes as well, leaving a trail of metadata behind them, begging to be analyzed -- in a good way.
