[mb-devel] Music Matcher SOC 2007

[Arnoldo Muller]

Thank you!

It is a somewhat simple concept with a fancy name :) , I hope to
release my open source licensing violation detection program by the
end of this year, however I don't think I will make it p2p-like
because there are not really many users for my project.

  My concern is that MB is actually depending on a closed source
solution... I think it would be nice to have a fully open source
solution. If MusicIP at one point disappears, or if they decide to
change the licensing scheme (even though they have promised to not do
that) wouldn't be nice to have a plan B? :)

Thanks again for your comments!

Arnoldo.
