Books (i.e. by Aldous Huxley, Kahlil Gibran, and Robert Frost) are now available without restriction online, as well as over a thousand works, such as movies (i.e. directed by Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton, Cecile B. DeMille),  and songs (i.e.Yes! We Have No Bananas by Silver & Cohn,  Wolverine Blues by Jelly Roll Morton, and Bela Bartok’s Violin Sonatas 1 and 2).
