Musicy downloads multiple songs at the same time. Fill up your iPod faster, and without the risks of bit torrent or p2p. It's software for your ears. Music to the people!

Whether this project will be resumed at some point in the future is still up for some debate, but for now, Musicy will no longer be entertaining thousands of people for free. <br /><br />Musicy was a lot of fun while it lasted, and enjoyed over 30,000 downloads. The author sincerely hopes that all who downloaded Musicy found enjoyment in it, and that they may one day enjoy it again.<br /><br />Until that day,<br /><br />-Busta<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6586803259209292484-871133819250781698?l=musicyrocks.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>BustaKnutzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07753373069920336929noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6586803259209292484.post-80133952805702682792010-06-16T19:27:00.000-07:002010-06-16T19:31:04.764-07:00This version of Musicy continues to provide all of the blazing free internet music features provided in the past, along with a new bug fix.<br /><br />Previously, duplicate file detection could fail when songs in the library contained apostrophes.

I'm thrilled. Musicy seems to be catching on with some in a big way.<br /><br />According to the summary statistics on the <a href="http://sourceforge.net/project/stats/?group_id=250252&amp;ugn=musicy">SourceForge</a> website, Musicy has been downloaded from SourceForge over 700 times!<br /><br />Musicy is also available from many other sites, so in actuality, Musicy has probably been downloaded much more, but there's no way to know exactly how much.<br /><br />Hopefully this will generate a buzz and a crack team of developers will appear to help turn Musicy into everything it has to potential to be. With a few more hands on deck, Musicy could go bigtime!<br /><br />If you're interested in seeing some of the sites that review and provide downloads for Musicy, there are several links provided below:<br /><br /><a href="http://www.ghacks.net/2009/01/13/free-internet-radio-recorder/#more-9858">http://www.ghacks.net/2009/01/13/free-internet-radio-recorder/#more-9858</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia/Audio/Audio-Players/Musicy.shtml">http://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia/Audio/Audio-Players/Musicy.shtml</a><br /><br /><a href="http://dgtlx.com/story/title/musicy-find-and-record-streaming-internet-radio-stations">http://dgtlx.com/story/title/musicy-find-and-record-streaming-internet-radio-stations</a><br /><a href="http://musicy.uptodown.com/en/"><br />http://musicy.uptodown.com/en/</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.tothetech.com/blog/2009/01/13/rip-online-music-with-musicy/">http://www.tothetech.com/blog/2009/01/13/rip-online-music-with-musicy/</a><br /><br />Happy Surfing!

The "Remove Small Files" button fires off a team of specially trained snipers who hate station intro's and incomplete files. The snipers rummage through your MP3 library and delete all of the MP3s that are to small to possibly be of any use.<br /><br />As far as size is concerned, Musicy currently reviews all files based on the 1MB rule. Less than a MegaByte, and out you go! It's amazing how useful this feature can be. I know that I've saved hours!<br /><br />On a side note I was listening to beautiful streaming MP3s with Musicy at work today. Were you?<br /><br />Happy streaming!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6586803259209292484-8512026418329787927?l=musicyrocks.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>BustaKnutzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07753373069920336929noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6586803259209292484.post-40977175498410120072009-01-13T07:37:00.000-08:002009-01-13T16:21:35.112-08:00Did you know that you can use the "LIKE" filter in the Musicy library with the '%' wildcard character?<br /><br />examples:<br /><br />artist LIKE %grateful% (searches for artists with "grateful" in their name, like the Grateful Dead)<br /><br />file LIKE %(1% (searches for filenames with "(1" in the filename, like when the file is a duplicate of another file.)<br /><br />Hope you're all enjoying Musicy!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6586803259209292484-4097717549841012007?l=musicyrocks.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>BustaKnutzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07753373069920336929noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6586803259209292484.post-31823029600574084482009-01-12T20:53:00.000-08:002009-01-13T16:21:53.389-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.uptodown.com/es_win/imagenes/award_black.gif"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 69px; height: 65px;" src="http://www.uptodown.com/es_win/imagenes/award_black.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />The author would like to give special thanks to uptodown.com for trying and reviewing the Musicy software suite.
