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

you don't have to force me tbh

i already posted this to the soundway thread AND lol facebook so i feel like someone owes me a commission, but i think the only way to get to the song itself is by going here http://thequietus.com/articles/09117-listen-ondatropica-i-ron-man

OIC it's a completely different band.

:(

the 'not buggy' in the title was unfortunate, if they could have ironed out some of the glitches it might have generated more interest and provided a case for its continued existence

the interface was p much perfect

if only they got rid of the upload limit?

it was too low for flacs which was becoming a problem

hopefully a phoenix rises from the ashes

^^^^^^

A phoenix made of METAL from Bandcamp

that plays flacs

:(

would really like to wkiw some ilxors right now :(

I miss it too.

Every time this thread gets bumped, it gets my hopes up. WHY CAN'T WE HAVE NICE THINGS

Have you guys ever used Mumu?

It has its cons (mainly that there's a five user limit to a room), but it's endured past Turntable.fm, The Listening Room and Outloud.fm.

RIP. the lord needed a buggy chatroom where He could drag n drop his celestial mp3s.

awwww

I've been on mumu a few times. I always forget about it, though!

I like Mumu for the sole fact that you don't have to register or sign in in any way whatsoever. You can just get on the site and go. And it doesn't seem to be browser-sensitive.

Mumu just doesn't have the community capability that Listening Room or Outloud did, hence why it's easy to forget.

I miss you guys, though.

me too.

miss you both em and crut ... and everyone else that would be on there when i was

Me three.

I guess we could all get one of those google+ group things I see on tv where some girl is getting married and somebody else is cooking and whatever, but I don't want to look at any of you :P

I have so much metal I want to subject introduce you guys to!

Isn't there something that can be done? I can strong-arm or sweet talk as needed. I def don't need to see anyone though. I just want to listen to/chat about tunes & stuff.

I don't miss any of you.

We could take up a collection to donate to the programmers to get things up and running again, but I suspect if any of us had that much money to burn we wouldn't be spending our free time on outloud.

Aww Rev, you know you miss us.

I don't want to look at any of you :P

Yeah, I don't want to ruin my mental image of all the outloud crew as super-buff hotties.

haha - maybe we could limit the visuals to jeff's hamster

He is certainly a super buff hottie.

i shall always cherish my introduction to rockets' 'galactica'

gah what was that tao lin hamster song i randomly found? do you remember, emil.y?

;_;

Makes me really regret all the time I wasted working and not sitting in outloud while the site was still functioning.

someone bug keith and stet to make a private one for us

I'm sure we could email the outloud guys and get the scripts or whatever.

no lie - came home tonight semi-drunk and thought "oh hey maybe people are on outloud" and then INFINITE SADFACE

new DN: John Justen and the Infinite Sadface

But seriously, does somebody want to e-mail them and see if they can get the code?

I would if I had any idea what to do with it. I'm guessing there would be no circumvention of its grey-area legality if we made one ilx0rs-only, right? It'd still be a bit dodgy? Otherwise I'd be totally up for puppy-dog-eyes-ing at stet/keith.

http://www.rolling.fm/

Rolling.fm is a part of Tenka.com, a “social media advertising startup” registered to its co-founder and chief product officer Tim Zhou, who was a senior software engineer at Google from April 2008 to June 2010, according to his LinkedIn profile, and worked at IBM before that.

His co-creation, whose domain he registered on June 27 — as Turntable.fm was gathering steam — is a group-listening room very much along the lines of Turntable.fm that encourages people to turn themselves into cute little avatars to play music for each other and chat about it; part of a big and growing group-listening phenomenon happening this year.

You log in to Rolling.fm with Facebook, just like with Turntable.fm. You “become a DJ to play music for everyone in the room” from either a central catalog or your own hard drive; earn credits for playing stuff people like; vote songs “hot” or “weak”; and use credits to buy new outfits for your avatar. The service is divided into browsable rooms (or you can go to a random one), and as a song loads, the front of the DJ stage displays a pithy, preloaded statement telling you to hold your horses.

All of this is precisely identical to Turntable.fm, except the avatars, rooms and people look a little different. Oh, and when you like a song, it’s “hot” instead of “awesome” — dislike it, and it’s “weak” instead of “lame.” Plus, there’s a cat sitting on the speakers and the DJs rotate through to the same laptop instead of using their own.

Granted, Rolling.fm brings a few additions to the Turntable.fm feature set, such as the ability to see who is in a room in one big list, and a private chat feature that lets you speak directly to Facebook friends even if they’re in a different room.

Or you can all use Soundrop like everyone else

by everyone else i mean like 5 of us

I really don't like the idea of logging in through facebook - is there another option? Would consider it if enough other people were interested, though. Also, can you start your own room?

the DJs rotate through to the same laptop instead of using their own.

What does this mean? Is it purely cosmetic (the little DJ avatars)?

OK here's an ILX room

emil.y, I thought you accessed Outloud via Facebook

that hideous GUI is the most succient argument for outloud one could wish for

come back outloud, all your myriad weird glitches are forgiven
