          Internet Underground Music Archive  
       "Before the Web made the cover of Popular Mechanics,          a few savvy undergraduates from the University of California,          Santa Cruz, and volunteers from the burgeoning Santa Cruz geek          community, created the Internet Underground Music Archive. Their          mission was superbly simple, to create the net's first free high-         fidelity music archive."
