I believe that, sir, is a walk-off. Bang biscuit!
 
I'm gonna pass. Music is not what I want from a Humble Bundle. I considered donating a penny just to show that I don't like it, but I wouldn't want to actually cost them any money either.
 
I'm going to support them. Also, I noticed now that you can create a Humble Bundle account and it is aware of your previous purchases (assuming you used the same email for each of them). That is much better than saving individual emails with random keys.
 
I know next to nothing abot OK Go, but They Might Be Giants, Jonathan Coulton, and MC Frontalot are terrific musicians and the latter two are of particular interest to nerds everywhere, with songs like "I Hate Your Blog", "RE: Your Brains", and "Still Alive" (aka the Portal song).

These are some of the better artists they could have gotten for a music bundle; Parry Gripp is the only artist I'd have really liked to see here who isn't present.
 
Bonus content has been added to the bundle:

Hey there!



Thanks for purchasing the Humble Music Bundle! We've just added nine new tracks from OK Go, Jonathan Coulton, MC Frontalot, and Stereo Alchemy! (Christopher Tin & Shoji Kameda) Check out your download page to access your new tracks. We're also including the piano sheet music for Hitoshi Sakimoto's "Farewell, My Academy" from the Valkyria Chronicles OST for the musically inclined!



Stereo Alchemy
Enjoy three tracks from Stereo Alchemy's debut album God of Love, crafted by Christopher Tin and Shoji Kameda. The two describe their signature sound as 'decadent electronica' and the three tracks available here -- “God of Love,” “Monster of the Sky,” and “Love is Love” -- present a brilliant and delightful sampling of the world Stereo Alchemy invites you to join.

OK Go
"Love Me Longtime" is a tribute to the oft-forgotten dial-up era of the internet as echoed by OK Go's Damian Kulash. The song's unique samplings of modem handshakes mingle with rock to recount a more patient, calm, and tactile internet experience that puts this anthem at the forefront of the slow internet movement.

MC Frontalot
MC Frontalot delivers three of his favorite remixes from the archive, including old school classic “Nerdcore Hip-Hop” backed up by more recent mixes “Secrets From The Future” by Crimson Death and a hard remix of the “Penny Arcade Theme.”

Jonathan Coulton
From Coulton’s eighth studio album Artificial Heart comes “Je Suis Rick Springfield,” originating from a rambling conversation had with They Might Be Giants’ John Flansburgh and sung entirely in French. From his unreleased collection, Coulton also provides bonus track “Blue Sunny Day” which explores an alternate view of a beautiful, sunny day.



Thanks again for your support and helping make the Humble Music Bundle a success!
Sincerely,
Jeffrey Rosen

Personally, I think this is a good deal for a lot of quality music.
