#34This is an amazing find! I'm wondering if anybody knows of a site for stock music tracks. I'm writing a mobile app (free) in which I want to include some stock music for my app's users to create their mixes but I can't find a single site which allows you to bundle their tracks inside your app. Anybody know anything?
You might try Jamendo. Most (all?) of the music on that site is under Creative Commons license, but I'm not 100% sure if that captures exactly what you want.

#35I'm really confused. I searched for "water" and it tells me I have 842 results, but then only displays 15 of them and doesn't give me any kind of paging mechanism. What gives? Edit: I get the intended scrolling mechanism when I page down in Firefox, but not in Chrome.
My mointor is tall enough that at full screen, the entire page fits on screen and there is no scroll bar. In order to trigger the loading of additional results, I have to take the browser out of full screen, resize it to be small enough to make a scroll bar appear, and then finally scroll the page a little bit. Seems like poor design to me. It could be worked around simply by including a "load more results" button at…
Sorry, my bad. fixed now.

#37OK interface I guess. I don't like that there's nothing about the author of the photo or any other metadata and that you have to click through to (maybe) see that. I would be extremely reluctant to use any of these in a commercial or potentially commercial context without being able to verify and archive the rights clearance information. Also, the tag curation is bad. If you look at a real stock photo site you see th…
Valid concerns, in a way your right but you can't fight supply and demand there will always be people looking for cheap things and people looking for the best quality things and willing to pay for it. I find that the people who complain that design contests ruined design or that cms's ruined building websites simply need to step their game up and attract higher quality customers who understand their value. it's up to you to prove your value and complaining about the market isn't very useful.

Yeah. I don't think there's anything inherently wrong with the approach of this site, I've just become skeptical of Free Culture as a source of economic empowerment.

whats gratisstock?
I was thinking of it as a play on the word "free" in french before the word Stock... Gratis - Free as in Beer Libre - Free as in Speech
But if they're public domain, the are free as in speech. You can modify the images any way you like and then do whatever with the result.
