Is it just my connection or did a lot of new wave mp3 blogs simply vanish from the face of the web? kiki's music blog, robert poland, synthman... so many others. I just attended a 3-day training then took a rest over the weekend and now this?

Saltyka's still accessible though.

Thanks.

I just realized I have a problem with the rar archives I downloaded from sites that seem to no longer exist having no password and all. Would anybody know of a way to circumvent the password requirement for these?

Robert Poland's Music Blog:

Kiki's Music Blog:

I believe the password for all of Robert's is "ROPO"

The passwords they use is often just the URL, so that if some **** decides to post direct links to the files, whoever downloads them will still know where the files originated from [:)]. Anyhow, it's always a good idea to unzip/unrar archives as soon as you get them because: 1) lost password; 2) corrupt archive.

I must apologize that I haven't updated my blog in some time now...I promise to get back to it as soon as possible. I have been looking for a music database program to catagorize my collection and I haven't found any that suits my tastes so I have been working on my own (based on Excel and Access). Before I get toooo far into this, does anyone have any suggestions?

filefactory question:

so i click on the link and I am brought to this page which says:
Here are your downloading options:

Upgrade to FileFactory Premium!
(Faster download speeds, pause and resume support, download
accelerator support, multiple simultaneous downloads and more!)

Download for free with FileFactory Basic

I click the second option and:

Click here to begin your download

Click here to begin your download with RedSWOOSH P2P

I click the first one and after a few minutes the screen shows a full ad without any options to continue with the download.

Maybe it was just busy or a browser security thing. Worked for me.

Does anyone know what happened to Logan, who was originally at arsenal-xmp3.blogspot.com? Then about a month ago that site got knocked off and he moved over to jukeboxmp3.blogspot.com. But now that site is gone. [V]
