They say: "We have partnerships with the OLPC project and Wikipedia so
we'll likely add music to those as well."

You don't need a partnership to upload free music, but do they really

There was a thread on the communications committee list 2 years ago

I've just posted to the Wikimedia blog about it:

They've exceeded their $10,000 goal, but more support can only help --
I gave $100, I hope others will too. :)
