outloud.fm/ILXORS — it's like Listening Room but not buggy and like turntable.fm but not designed for tweens. (RIP 2012)

drag'n'drop from mac itunes no work
like most flash-based music stuff it's picky about bit rate
oddly it works on mobile safari but not regliar safari

animated site ICOn = BOOO

that icon is the best bit!

otm

outloud sounds like a youthgroup for lgbt teens

It's been fine with me about bit rate - I've uploaded plenty of 320s - but you can't upload anything over 20mb.

Quite a few occurrences last night of songs stopping half the way through, though. Thinking there might be a server glitch with vbr or something presently. They're generally good about fixing problems quickly once they know about them.

Quite a few = 3 or 4.

lol plax

The favicon dances! I'm out.

metal

;_;

whinging about metal
;_;

wonder if lightly themed rooms might be a way to go

it gets v dancey at night

Mmmm currently dj-ing by myself in there. There's more people but I've no idea if they're listening because noone is talking. Anyhoo...

The favicon dances!

It's actually Cool Spot.

Many listeners at the moment, but there should be more uploaders too.

Whenever I see at least an hour's worth of queue ahead of me (which is always) I say fuckit, y'all'll just have to do without my brilliant choices.

I agree this is a problem...allowing everyone to upload five tracks each doesn't work well with more than a couple of users.

Hmm, I'll gladly remove some of my tunes from the queue if that means more people will upload theur tunes.

I'm at work so not available for Outloudage anyway...btw my comment wasn't aimed at anyone in particular, I've maxed out the queue myself on numerous occasions.

The reason I put the max amount was because few others seemed to be uploading, but maybe they didn't want to upload because of so many tunes in the queue? Oh no, it's a vicious circle!

a bit of restraint and turn-taking and not queueing anything when there's more than half a dozen already up ought to fix that. again not pointing a finger cos i've shoved plenty of tracks up.

Yeah I think we can place our faith in self-regulation.

I'm also liable to queue up drones, horrible noises and/or insect music, stuff I figure might not go over too well.

people cd maybe delete anything they've queued if they're gonna leave the room. wouldn't want to have rules about what kind of things people shd play but obv i wouldn't queue up 5 looooong Merzbow tracks and then fuck off cos that wd be a bit doltish imo

Okay, we decided that tonight's theme is SPACE! Log in to Outloud and get your cosmic kicks!

I'm down

I'll be there in, um, 5 hours or so.

Also, we thought that if there's 5 or more people uploading stuff, it would be a good rule for each person to have a maximum of 2 tunes in the queue.

I think if people hang fire queueing as well you've got more chance of thematically linking into the track before.

yes

The space theme is rolling nicely, but it'd be cool to have more people uploading stuff.

lol the moment I show up today, there are but four tracks in the queue. By the time I upload my second one, there will be an hour wait to until it plays. I know it wasn't the case, but it felt like "JF is here...let's load up the queue really fast!"

this seems pretty civilized to me

I've stunned the room into silence

headbump

boomp

ooh would like to do this today, but i'm in the office. curses!

is that slipknot guy still there?

no he's gone

Actually he uploaded Rammstein and Slipknot, then quit the room before they played. No way to remove tracks = :-(

blechh

It got really eclectic and good for ~30-40min after that guy left. Then another person uploaded 6 tracks out of 7, and also left.

wow i bet whoever did that was really funny and cool

yeah that is lame. do they have a suggest ban system in place yet?

Turns out he was in the room after all and got his feelings hurt when I complained.

11:32MS_EsR:i am not that dude. why do you assume 'I' am a 'he' too? just because you dont like the music you should not criticize me. you are all very unfriendly and cliqueish. im so sorry i dont fit in. i'll just not bother coming here again

"I came into this room uninvited, uploaded half a dozen tracks without any regard whatsoever for other users, then when I was called on it I got all butthurt."

as long as you can shame shit uploaders into not returning, the system works

im so sorry i dont fit in.

Years of posting to ILX has hardened us to lame passive-aggressive attempts at guilt tripping.

i'll just not bother coming here again

pfft, wvs...

I wouldn't lock this thread, but yeah, new one for plug and an RIP in the title would be good.

plug is pretty nice!

any "upload yr own tracks" service is probably not going to fly anymore, i guess...

...

Made a new thread: plug.DJ/ILXORS – it's like Outloud but not defunct and like turntable.FM but internationally accessible and with more bears

this would have been a perfect night for this shit to still work

i mean

for reals

theres always plug.dj

now that i actually made it work

it has bears and kind of sucks but hey
