Great site to discover world music
 

Just fell on this pearl while browsing through the BoomBox avail station.

http://magnatune.com/genres/world

Whole albums streaming at 128k, if I only had a streaming ripper...

Listening to Tilopa modern Japanese zen-flute, very soothing :)

i can get into a bit of this stuff
:W:

http://streamripper.sourceforge.net/

i have not used it ^ but have heard others mention it is ok

I have used the Winamp version of Streamripper (available from Multi's link). Not 100 % stable but the problems are quite rare and have occured only in very long sessions (hours). For occasional recording of Winamp-playable streams it does the job just fine.

Thank you for the ripper suggestion but it kinda didn't work the way I expected it to be. Tried it and got 44 files instead of 8 :con:


Just to say, found a simpler and more reliable way to get those tracks. I let them all stream until the album is done, right click on a song, view the file info, gives the url of the song, load the url in browser, let the song download in firefox browser and finally, Save page as :)

Lots of music genre there, i'm surprised at the quality of the music too.

You call that simple!!!!. You could use a download manager, Go to the site in a File Explorer view and download that way. A good dl manager would find the right url, in this case it seems to change the www to mms.
