Any way I can swipe the files from music on myspace that won't let you DL without resorting to using a wave recording program to record it as it plays? IE does it cache it as some recognisable format/one you can convert to MP3. I need to know because I really want to DL "Closer" by, but don't have recording software on this machine. Thanks in advance. |

Yes, that seems to be fairly random; I think what determines it is the page. If it's a friend with shit taste in music's page, you won't be able to shut it up and it'll blare out wanky indie rock until you turn your speakers off. If it's good music on an artist's page that you've specifically gone to listen to, it's 50:50 whether or not it'll work. As to getting a track you've played once to play again without navigating away from the page and back, forget it. |

Some people will choose to make their music downloadable. If the word download under the song title is black and its a link, then its downloadable. Otherwise, its going to be slightly discolored, and just say the word download. |

I dunno if you'd give one but i know zomby really hates people doing this, made a thread on another board about people sharing myspace rips of his stuff on slsk. Tis a bit of a pain but myspace rips are a huge no-no in "the scene", i don't see how having 96kpbs copies doing the rounds for such subby tunes can do any harm but there you go. But as long as yer not sharing i guess it was sort of pointless typing that, um, yeh. |

I wouldn't rip Spliff Dub/Ganjaman Dub as I know they're coming out "soon" (any idea of an approximate release date BTW?) and will wait for the 12"- I have more dubstep as 12s than mp3s. It's just that currently, whenever I want to listen to Closer (which I think is an excellent track), I have to use myspace's temperamental player, rather than just use an mp3. I've noticed the dubstep scene in general seems overly worried about piracy (even fearing people cutting and selling loads of 12"s of "unreleased" tracks), when as you say, a low quality mp3 for such sub oriented music is going to sound rubbish. I've also never encountered a dubstep white label other than (official) early copies of a release, so it seems unjustified. |

I think the only way is the old wave recording technique. And even that doesn't work with my soundcard for some reason. I want a copy of Burial's Unite to listen to offline, as myspace's player is utter shite and constant buffer hell. Or better yet, I wish the fool would finish it, and get it pressed onto vinyl! |

there is an option somewhere in your preferences that turns off the automatic play thing, when you visit other people's pages, I mean. after you log in, click on "Account Settings", then click on "Music Settings: - Change Settings-" (probably has a red New! next to it) and click the second one, "Disable Band Songs From Automatically Starting". |

The herbology ep release sort of fell through, last i heard spliff dub was coming out on army sometime "mid october"... dunno though, his release dates always seem to get pushed back, haven't seen word of any test pressings yet. Got a couple of tracks coming out on bare dubs in november though, savage and memories i think. |

tjaho, on the myspace. Add us or something! I don't know how to work this stuff nor "what's up?" on that site or whatever. Check those friends. They're mostly Carlos, but also Carlos and someone else. And one guy I have no idea who is. I, Pedro, will be using this page at random times if I ever need to do Myspacy things. how do I, like, do stuff? I had a hard enough time finding the sign in form and uploading songs was a bitch... |

I was listening to Unite again earlier (on myspace again) and it's great. The female vocal reminds me of Baby D's "Let me be your Fantasy". |

1. Goto the MySpace site that you want to download the music from 2. That page must have at least one song available for download 3. Open notepad 4. Right-click the download link and select copy Link 5. Paste this link into your notepad You see something like this: http://mp3download.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction= bandprofile.downloadSong&bsid=OldSongNumberHere&song_name= Title of the Old Song Here &fid=bandid 6. Right-click the add link and select copy link 7. Paste this into your notepad You will see something like this: asfunction:addSong,NewSongNumber^Title of the New Song Here 8. Now in the original URL just replace the old song number and old title with the new number and title. Paste this URL into your browser and click OK. 9. After several seconds, you will be prompted to download the song. |

if there isn't at least one song available to download, do this: All we need to do is get the XML file that the player loads and reads. The easiest way to do this is to clear your IE cache, reload the player from the band's site, and look for the XML file that gets created in your cache directory. The XML file may not be easy to spot without a clean cache directory. The file generally follows this naming convention: MP3_XML.cfm?xmlfid=bandid&rand=xxxxxxxxxx (10 digit random number) Cut and paste that XML file onto your desktop and open it wth Notepad. Once you look in the XML file you will see the direct path of the mp3 song. For example: "92/12/57836332/57836332_d13db5fz.mp3" (this is an invalid link -- just an example) After this, append that directory to http://musicstream.myspace.com and you're golden. For http://musicstream.myspace.com/92/12/57836332/57836332_d13d example, " b5fz.mp3" |
