Researchers have found the first recorded song - which predates Thomas Edison.
Scroll down and you can listen to it on the left in the "Multimedia" section.
Tell me what you think!

They can’t sue you for listening. That would only be if you illegally downloaded the MP3.
Even if you did, I’m sure they can’t do much. The guy is dead, so who would they be able to give the royalties to if they sued you and won in court? There’s an even deeper thought.

a. I was being sarcastic
b. I’m in Australia, so there’s much less chance they’re gonna sue me
c. The RIAA is an american organisation, this recording is French and was probably made before copyright laws
d. By downloading the raw MP3 not embedded in a flash, that’s technically downloading the actual song
e. If they won the lawsuit, they would keep the money just like everyone else they have sued

I know. I was just posting what I thought could happen. No hard feelings or anything, and I did detect your sarcasm.

Music becomes public domain after 70 years after the artist dies..
Do what you like with the mp3.
I doubt copyright was even thought of.

Interesting. I think it sounded rather eerie like ESP or something. But still cool.
We’ve come a long way.

I got that feeling too. It seemed like someone was trying to summon a spirit or something.
