   Perhaps this was the beginning of the end for the CC Music Community: https://fwonk.bandcamp.com/album/fw2006-2008-2017
   
   Then Music Manumit dies in July 2018. Then FMA essentially dies in December 2018.
   
   I know plenty of people are still putting out #ccmusic, so maybe "dead" is hyperbolic.
   
   It's actively dying though. CCMA was an attempt to make the illness not terminal, but it may have made things worse. It certainly led directly to the dying of Music Manumit.
   
   Moving forward...
   
   ccMixter is being put under a lot of pressure by the really shitty Creative Commons organization. They did the same thing to #CCMA.
   
   If ccMixter is to not meet the same fate as FMA, people need to support them now, before it is too late.

      although I guess blocSonic references a UK netlabel that lasted a year in like 2010. I guess things come and go all the time, but it seems like a lot of things that have been around a while are dying without replacement.
      
      Another example: whatever happened to the White Market Podcast?
      
      Unsurprisingly, Open Music Network is struggling to get off the ground.
      
      In happier news, the sun decided to come out here in Minneapolis.
