Grooveshark, a peer-to-peer (P2P) music file-sharing community that brokers music transactions between members, is a service of Escape Media Group, Inc. By charging for the songs exchanged between members, Grooveshark will compensate copyright holders and users while providing the convenience and selection of P2P file sharing in an online music community. All Grooveshark files are made available by users so they are free of digital rights management (DRM) technology, allowing users to play the songs they purchase on any type of computer or digital music player.

Grooveshark offers the best of P2P file sharing, online music stores and music discovery communities in one service. Visitors can browse songs made available by other members and pay to download MP3 files with no digital rights management (DRM) technology. Songs vary in price, but cost no more than 99 cents. Grooveshark will pay appropriate royalties to copyright holders from users’ transactions. Additionally, members will be compensated with credits for community participation including sharing their libraries, fixing erroneous song tags, flagging unwanted files, and reviewing concerts, that can then be redeemed for free music.
