—Paste magazine: Paste is trying to use music to raise fuins on a smaller scale. The music mag has set up Songs for Haiti, unreleased songs from Ludacris, Of Montreal and more than 200 other artists available as MP3s for anyone who donates money through the site—or says they have donated through other sites. Paste says it will donate 100 percent of the proceeds equally between Doctors Without Borders, The Red Cross, and Wyclef Jean’s Yele Haiti Earthquake Fund, but cautions that donations there are not tax deductible.
