About this organization
Mission
To enlarge and maintain the open datasets for the public good with the assistance of its volunteer users and to allow the public to access useful information about new music without the biases associated with the commercial distribution of these creative works.
About
The Metabrainz Foundation creates and maintains open source/open data projects such as MusicBrainz, ListenBrainz and AcousticBrainz. MusicBrainz is essentially the Wikipedia for music, where volunteers provide the information on music from all around the world. The ListenBrainz and AcousticBrainz projects collect user listening profiles and acoustic information about music with the goal of creating open recommendation engines for public use. This data is collected and made available for commercial use to anyone who wishes to support the operation of the foundation.
