Farewell to the Download page

[TomTom]

Since the Transitions show will be posted in the p+r from 2011 on, our Download page has become obsolete so it's time to take it down. Putting it offline was a bit of a bummer because so many good memories are connected with it for me.

Starting with password protection and moving on to mysterious files without mp3 extensions you can only get if you have 25 postings. Now it can be said..the post count you had to have was 25. Not that much imo but for some a crime against humanity lol. A cent for each question we got about the Download page and we'd be zillionaires.

Over seven years of dishing Digweed's Transitions and other mixes through the Download page shouldn't go by unnoticed so please say farewell to the Download page. All hail to you, Download page!

Re: Farewell to the Download page

Wholeheartedly agree.

SO MANY good tunes came to me through that download page over the years.

Thank you to everybody who helped make that happen.

Re: Farewell to the Download page

Though it might be a bit sad to see it go, I think now's the time. The Internet has come a long way since [ms] was born, which has provided many new outlets to get our weekly dose of music. When [ms] started, we were searching for music on Napster and crossing fingers to discover new artists worth listening to. Now, I think advancements in Internet bandwidth & frameworks and the many free storage sites have made our Kiss 100 hosting something that doesn't compete with today's commodity of free podcasts and networking direct with the artists we like on Facebook, MySpace, Soundcloud, and Twitter.

Here's to gracefully folding away our Kiss 100 mission and welcoming in a more contemporary goal of connecting our members to instant download subscriptions with our new DJ Database

Long live Audiogalaxy, where it all began. If you remember those many moons ago, as I do, I awaited not-so-patiently as dial-up modems around the world slowly fed me each piece of each Digweed mix.

And somewhat ironically as I Googled for audiogalaxy to verify the name, I notice the guys who started Audiogalaxy all those years ago - which later became "FolderShare", sold to Microsoft, and later turned into Windows Life Sync -- are now back doing Audiogalaxy.... http://www.audiogalaxy.com/

And the circle is complete...
