Band Donates Proceeds to Slain Philadelphia Cop
Contributions Support Officer in Abu-Jamal Case
PHILADELPHIA (APBnews.com) -- While several artists and entertainers have come out to back convicted cop-killer Mumia Abu-Jamal's claims of innocence, one local band is supporting the officer he shot dead.
The pop group Cloning Einstein is donating 50 percent of its proceeds from MP3.com music file downloads to 10 charities, including the not-for-profit group Justice for Daniel Faulkner.
...
The MP3.com Web site is paying $1 million this month to artists whose music is downloaded from the site the most. Listeners pay nothing, but bands can earn cash from the "Payback for Playback" offer.

From their website ( http://cloningeinstein.com/charity.php3 ), here's a list of the charities they will donate to:
- Feed the Children
- Children's Miracle Network
- World Wildlife Fund
- Humane Society of the United States
- Justice for Police Officer Daniel Faulkner

All I have to say is that my DSL line will be humming this weekend.
