"I kind of laugh at all this Napster stuff," says Laughing Colors lead singer Dave Tieff. "At our stage, offering free tracks makes sense. We're trying to get noticed, and promotions like this are a tool." Tieff says sales of the group's independently released CDs (available via the band's website) have risen more than 50% since it won iCAST's contest last...
