adding a first indication to the first audio file in the database over the information sharing network, the first indication having information about the first audio file;

searching the database for a second indication about the second audio file over the information sharing network; and

combining at least portions of the first audio file and the second audio file into a composite audio file.

13 . The method of claim 12 , wherein:

combining the first audio file and the second audio file comprises:

modifying the first audio file while combining the first audio file with the second audio file into the composite audio file.

14 . The method of claim 12 , wherein:

combining the first audio file and the second audio file comprises:

using an audio sequencer to combine at least one of the first audio file and the second audio file.

15 . The method of claim 12 , wherein:

uploading the first audio file comprises:

uploading the first audio file to a database over a Internet; and

searching for the second indication comprises:

searching for the second indication in the database over the Internet.

16 . The method of claim 12 , wherein:

the first audio file is uploaded by a first user;

the second audio file is provided by a second user; and

the first user is different from the second user.

17 . The method of claim 12 , wherein:

adding the first indication to the first audio file comprises:

providing the first indication to be an instrument used in the first audio file.

18 . The method of claim 12 , wherein:

adding the first indication to the first audio file comprises:

providing the first tag indication to be a musical genre of the first audio file.

19 . The method of claim 12 further comprising:

downloading the composite audio file over the information sharing network.

20 . The method of claim 12 further comprising:

changing the first indication to comprise different information about the first audio file.

21 . The method of claim 12 further comprising:

changing the second indication to comprise different information about the second file.
