Following on the controversy around the Grey Album, a shadowy group of people have released the Jay-Z Construction Set that includes all you need to make your own remixes. It has the original Black Album, the vocal tracks, 14 remix albums, and all the old school samples and high-larious clipart you need to build your own project.
I love the optimism in construction sets, the idea that if you give ordinary people some raw material they'll produce art. In computer games, Bill Budge's Pinball Construction Set set the standard.
