I've begin working on a social network for Digital Meltd0wn. It is not intended to compete with any other social network, rather it will be a place for all of us music lovers to interact with one another and share music among other things. The network is fully functional at the moment, however I'm working quickly to improve as many things as possible in order to provide a more enjoyable experience there. I would be honored if you all join me there. For those of you who do decide to join, I could use a little help. At this point your suggestions and feedback would be a tremendous help. I'm working on coming up with a suitable name for the network instead of using the generic 'DM Social Network', so if you have any ideas please let me know. It would also be very helpful if you could upload music, videos, pictures, and create blog posts and groups - basically anything to make the network seem more alive. Inviting a few friends probably wouldn't hurt either. As I mentioned before, I have a lot of work to do, but I will do all I can to create a utopia for music lovers. Please refer to the links below if you are interested in becoming a part of this.

Welcome
W
elcome to the Digital Meltd0wn Music Blog. I started this blog, and the Digital Meltd0wn Music Blogroll for several reasons. The main reason being to pay tribute to the countless artists and bands who do not, and probably never will, get the recognition that they deserve due in part to the current state of the music industry. I also plan to share albums that are currently out of print, released for free, or were never available for purchase to begin with. I also hope to interact with you fellow music lovers, and in the process get introduced to artists that I wouldn't have heard about otherwise.
Please keep in mind that the majority of the musicians and the labels that they are signed to, are not mainstream, and therefore they are not wealthy. It is not my goal to hurt any artists or labels, so if you like something that you find here, please support the artist by purchasing their material afterwards. If you are an artist/label and would prefer that your material be removed from this blog, simply leave me a comment, and I would be more than happy to comply by promptly removing the offending post.
In addition to running this blog, I also work on a few other projects during my spare time. You can find links to those, as well as a few other important links relating to this blog below.

I discovered this very useful tool via lifehacker It's called TheLastRipper and basically what it does is connect to your last.fm account, and rip the streams and album art to the folder of your choice. That was enough to convince me, however this little tool is actually capable of much more than just that. You can find the full list of features below. I'm sure that all you last.fm aficionados will put this tool to good use. It has proven to be a valuable tool in exploring various tag radios and genres on last.fm. I simply allow it to run and rip tracks overnight, and then easily explore a wide selection of songs from them the next day, while simply deleting the songs that I do not wish to keep.
Features:
Downloads Cover Art
Generates m3u Plalyst
Organizes mp3s into folders
Records streams to mp3 files
