The Goodfight: Selling Records, Saving Lives
by PHILIP ROSS, Causecast Editor
Selling records to save lives: the Goodfight, a Peach State based band with water security on the mind, is selling records – and giving 100 percent of the sales to charity. In fact, charity: water, to be precise, a nonprofit fighting global illness by providing the poor with access to clean water.
I could say more, but I’d rather you get the scoop straight from the source:
You can listen to and purchase Goodfight’s latest album “Good & Evil” online, knowing that your ten bucks is bringing clean water to people in poverty. Pass it along, tell your friends!
You can also donate directly to charity: water, where your money will be used to dig wells in underdeveloped areas around the globe.

I really love this, because it could especially tie in with Chris Anderson's "Free." Anderson (http://www.thelongtail.com/)describes in many examples how giving away one item for free (usually a digital "bit") can still be a profitable business model when charging for something else (in a band's case, the live performance). Imagine if Radiohead had a pay-what-you-want model that were direct "donate what you want," or Trent Reznor charged $5 for "Ghosts I-IV" and still kept the tracks public domain.
