just a comment or starter.
I ripped the mp3 files from em411.com/radio.php
file: REMOVED for 404 - SORRY!
its malformed XML file but XSPF format i think?
anyways, the VALID files are 1.77 Gigabytes. a whopping 3 hours of tunes.
I disliked a whole two of the songs there and won't say which. Point is, its nearly all printable, finely made and pretty amazing when you think about a whole music industry full of complete junk this last four years (or a few decades?)
Point is signal-tonoise -> em411 == REALLY GREAT ! !
Thanks to everyone for making music to code by / play by work by whatever

wow
avoiding narcissism and all that it's really neat to imagine where your tracks actually end up on the internets, without even knowing where they've gone?
I had a friend who had some music end up on college radio without knowing about it,

yeah, I remember being fully confused once when one of our songs came on some random internet radio station while I was working, it was pretty gratifying

Heh, I used to cover that Doors song in high school. We did a 20 minute version of it. I sang (it was one of two songs we did that had vocals).
I'm continually amazed by the high quality of the EM411 releases. I was oontzing over them a few months ago in a blog entry. Glad someone else has decided to continue the group hug.
As for downloading the relases for a podcast, I do the following python script (called "scrapemp3s") to get the mp3 urls:
#!/usr/bin/python
#$Id: scrapemp3s,v 1.2 2007-08-27 23:08:03 ken Exp $
# a silly script to harvest mp3s from links
import re
import sys
line_re='.*"(http:.+mp3)".*'
line_re2='.*>(http:.+mp3)<.*'
for line in sys.stdin.readlines():
m=re.match(line_re, line)
if type(m) != type(None):
print m.group(1)
m=re.match(line_re2, line)
if type(m) != type(None):
print m.group(1)
----
then I call it as follows (on linux):
lynx -source link | scrapemp3s |while read i; do wget -c "$i"; done
A few hours later I have the whole set of em411 releases. On to my MP3 player it goes. Much better than radio.
