Read MoreWell waddya know, MP3.com is back. OK, so it’s not the good old, let’s get sued version, but at least it offers free music galore to stream and download, from a bunch of indie, unsigned and…gasp…signed artists.

However, one company thinks that it shouldn’t be such a big deal, and created the Adhoc Canoe. This canoe is full-size and collapses down to be carried on your back, and weighs only 9 pounds….
