What it does

On reveal: +3 Power to the next card you play.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 2 RAM to play and brings 2 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Media cards broadcast Power to your other lanes.

The site, in 2006

A non-profit in Palo Alto that offers public domain classical recordings, sheet music and free learning material.

Aaron Dunn started it in May 2006. A 2010 Kickstarter raised $68,359, more than six times its goal, to record orchestral works with the Czech Philharmonic, and a 2013 campaign paid for the complete works of Chopin.

Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.

The Establishment: Governments, universities, libraries and archives. Very official.
