I don't think what I'm about to suggest is practical but offer it up in
case someone gets an idea:
There's a website out there (can't recall or find it, sorry) that
encourages the 'liberation' of books. You are encouraged to trade books
with others and all it costs you is the postage to mail your book. Also,
and here's where my thinking lies (or lay) is that you are also encouraged to
leave your books out in the wild (on a bench at the airport, in a coffee house,
on the bus, etc) where someone else might pick it up. There is a place
where you can register your book and print off a label to past inside explaining
this with the site URL and book ID number so the book could be tracked around
the world.
Now I don't propose something as grand as that, but I like the idea of
leaving copies of the CD scattered all over the place (not just the music racks
as originally suggested). The label can suggested the finder burn a copy
for themselves and leave it somewhere for someone else to find.
The only real problem I see with that is with ipods, etc being the rage
right now it's unlikely someone on the Tube will have a portable CD player to
pop it in and listen to. They'd have to bring it home, or at least back to
their car. And, as such, the whole concept falls apart.
So there.
