MP3.com Archive Not Lost (1.7 Million Songs Saved)

macdaddypunk writes "We all remember last December's grim news: MP3.com closed its doors, warning thousands of musicians that 'all your content will be deleted from our servers.' However, as the Wall Street Journal reports today, most of the original MP3.com archive was never deleted! Two companies, GarageBand and Trusonic, claiming to have a legitimate copy of the archive, are now enabling former MP3.com artists to visit www.MP3isBack.com and recover their MP3.com music, instantly re-generating their artist pages with just a few clicks. Trusonic, itself a Vivendi spin-out, focuses on licensing music to retailers for in-store airplay. GarageBand, like a HOTorNOT for music, offers free mp3 downloads and claims to host the definitive charts of independent music."

    (halfway down the page) "the BEST MOMENT OF THE WHOLE CONVENTION was when the 2 roving bands of Hitlers happened to run into each other. .. it was like, 'wow, you're hitler too?? top of the morning to ya!!' they were so happy!! all taking each other's pictures and shit. . . then they got their picture taken ALL TOGETHER, with A STUFFED PANDA THROWN IN FOR NO REASON. i did not manage to capture this on film so i will now kill myself."

    And one for the road.

    God damnit, I wanted First Post for 4/20 (well, not quite) just to highlight the issues brought up by my troll. I am the Conor Collins Troll, dedicated to the destruction of Conor Collins and all that he stands for. I also believe that *BSD is dying, you guys should pay your $699 Liscensing fee to SCO and that I'm so 1337 that you can't handle it. I am before my time, my greatness shall be revered forever.

    Down. If you had said "I'm as shocked as you are. I'll probably get modded down, but I'm wondering what it'll get modded to" would have given you + points.
