Cloud Flipper: SoundCloud to RSS Converter

[picklemonkey]

Hey guys, I don't know how many of you use Feed Flipper (the app I made to convert iTunes podcasts to RSS) but if you do, you may like the new one I just created this week. I'm tagging it "Cloud Flipper." It's a SoundCloud to RSS converter; you just enter a SoundCloud URL on the page, and it outputs a new URL which can be subscribed to by any RSS/podcast reader.

Note that this won't convert your personal profile's subscriptions to RSS, but instead will only convert a specific person or group's page feed. For me to be able to convert a personal profile's subscriptions, I'd have to deal with accepting/passing through your account credientials to SoundCloud. I didn't want to violate any of their Terms and risk account termination, so I decided to only focus on converting the person/group pages.

Let me know what you think! Also, since it's new please let me know if you find any issues so I can try to make this thing more stable.

Thanks to Cloud Flipper and [ms] member-extraordinaire R_co, I have now subscribed [ms] directly to his SoundCloud page: http://soundcloud.com/r_co

You should all expect to see [ms] automatically post any of his new SoundCloud sets (~10 new sets/day?) to P&R under his username on his behalf.


Here's to getting more music here with less effort!

Hey Adam, have you messed around with Yahoo Pipes at all?

Its been out a while and seems really powerful, never played with it though.

I finished a beta last night of a new version. This will convert your entire SoundCloud Dashboard to an RSS feed. The last version only did page by page. If anybody's interested in trying it out, you can access it here:

Some amazing stuff here.

Thanks all will try and check these out. I must say I really have underestimated the power of Soundcloud.

Whoa, looks great. I had been staying away from soundcloud as it was too much work to go check all my favorite artists constantly, but now that there is this.... thanks pickle!

Nicely done Adam. Just put a colleague's page in and added the feed to Feedly (my RSS reader).

If only Soundcloud would implement RSS for their Dashboard pages.
