10 years ago yesterday Laurence Lessig released his seminal book Free Culture free online, under a Creative Commons license. Read it here.
Shortly afterwards, AKMA was inspired to "crowd-source" an audio version, which you can listen to here.
Ultimately, these happenings were the inspiration for Hugh McGuire's idea of LibriVox, which commenced operations a little over a year later.

Hugh has created a wonderful resource, but at the same time has made Librivox the most addictive thing online.
