how kind of you to allow ilxor to dj your day
― Algerian Goalkeeper, Friday, 14 January 2011 15:09 (thirteen years ago) link
maybe it's about not uploading more than two or three songs at a time?

clearly this is meant for me to DJ everyone's day, right?

(soundtrack would just be a bunch of stuff from the ILX metal poll today, honestly)
it seems to be crazy glitchy, but the potential is awesome.
― EZ Snappin, Friday, 14 January 2011 15:12 (thirteen years ago) link
it's gonna need constant pruning and attention; i think certain tracks stick in its craw and you need to remove them as they come up.

― Algerian Goalkeeper, Friday, 14 January 2011 15:41 (thirteen years ago) link
several people have upped stuff! feel free to try creating a different room and posting link here if you wanna.you're not uploading the mp3s per se, you're streaming them just to your room. you can't replay.

it pulls your mp3 info including the album cover and then the album cover appears as a record, which spins.

okay, so if the record is totally black, it won't load the song. If it's got a picture on it, it's fine. If there's gray on the record, that's the playtime.

this doesn't allow direct downloads though does it? it's just streaming? it'd be more comparable to internet radio then, or someone running a shoutcast server, which i don't know the legality of.

re: turntable.fm
Can't remember if it was mentioned here or not, but I just posted this in another place and thought I'd reiterate here.
I've played around on turntable.fm a little bit and, while it has some cool aspects, it turns the experience into more of a contest or game than I'm comfortable with. I'd rather just hang with people I know and play tunes instead of voting things up or down. Also, the chat portion of turntable.fm is deemphasized in favor of some totally dumb "virtual club" setting which looks like an 8 year-old's video game. No thanks.
this is all true but I like that it automatically rotates among the room DJs so your tracks are shuffled better
also if you just create a small room and have a few people in there it's just hanging with people you know playing tunes
― dmr, Monday, 27 June 2011 22:02 (twelve years ago) link
i.e. you don't have to bother with the voting business
also like that it sends you an email if one of the "DJs" you're "following" logs on
― dmr, Monday, 27 June 2011 22:03 (twelve years ago) link
so you can know if any friends are on
Your positives register with me, but I still think the format/layout is really non-conducive to a good time.
― Alpaca Lips (Johnny Fever), Monday, 27 June 2011 22:06 (twelve years ago) link
it definitely looks corny. the avatars are like Wii characters.
― dmr, Monday, 27 June 2011 22:21 (twelve years ago) link
oh yeah forgot I also like that you can search and play tracks from a database. I can't really upload anything from work so I could only use outloud as a listener

turntable.fm, front page:
We're very sorry, but while we would love to let you in and rock out with us, we need to currently restrict turntable access to only the United States due to licensing constraints. We are working very hard to try and get you in as soon as possible.

That settles it, I guess? I think Outloud has worked really nicely, with few of the problems Listening Room had. It's a pity you have to use you a Twitter/FB account to log in, but you can just create a fake Twitter account like I did. I don't see any need to use another site at the moment.
