Music Rules - http://www.music-rules.com/
Music Rules is a free educational program for grades 3-8, but I believe the information in Music Rules is appropriate for high school students as well. I am currently using this information at the middle school level to teach students about respecting intellectual property for music. This site has PDF documents with lessons and activities about ethical use of music in the digital age.
