Post by: protoman on August 13, 2005, 08:18:54 pm
one out of nine

Direct downloads are back!!

You heard that right ... you've got a one in nine (http://www.protoman.com/Music/) chance of getting what you want right now, no holds barred. Of course, you might not even know what you want yet, considering I've also added all of the music faithful TPH co-conspirator neothe0ne has been ripping over the past few months!

I also decided to cut all the nonunique content, which means that things that are sold on CD in Japan (e.g. the Rockman Zero Remixed tracks) are no longer available here on TPH. Sorry, but I thought that all that bandwidth would be better used transferring things we've ripped ourselves than things you can just go into a store (online, if necessary) and buy.

As always I'm very open to any and all feedback about the new system. Let me know what you think!

Heh, you just HAD to give in.  Now they win ;_; (Holy crap, that rhymed, hehe)

Anyways, are you EVER gonna put the SSBM orchestrated soundtrack I uploaded on here?  XD.

you are not going to believe this, but it's been on my (otherwise very clean and minimalist) desktop in a folder called superyoshi ever since you gave it to me. problem is that i don't know what to set the tags to (e.g. artist) when i encode it to mp3 so it's just kind of sitting there ... :/

actually, wait, superyoshi, i just realized that thing's a cd rip, isn't it? :/ that means i can't post it under the new rules ... which are that i only accept things people have recorded themselves from games. the reasoning is that the cd rips tend to be a LOT more popular than the amateur recording stuff, so i can put up a lot more each day if i cut the cd rips ... sorry for leading you on like that. thanks for the music, though. :P

Have fun.  I'm not sure if Macs can open .zip files though.

is it too much trouble to put up torrents still?
Title: UPDATE [2005.08.13]
Post by: neothe0ne on August 16, 2005, 08:51:01 pm
To make a long story short, yes.

Yeah, I recorded SSBM and SSB.  You'll find that every other online source of those games' soundtracks are incomplete :(.  EmuParadise has SSBM, but it's missing tracks.  A USF rip was made of SSB, but that's incomplete.

Also Protoman, you can remove my rip of Rockman 4 Complete Works ;)  I didn't know you had done it back then, and I was too lazy to delete it from the FTP earlier.

Wow, I'm slow today.  Star Wars Episode III, 40 Years of John Williams, Halo 2, Guild Wars, and Green Day are all CD rips.  You can get rid of those.

yeah, i moved those back to my rips. if you want to save me much-needed space, you can just delete them off your ftp. ;) btw, the groups key won't update (to show those aren't there anymore) until midnight central time tonight when the available group changes.

and as for the torrents, sorry ... torrent just isn't a viable option for tph. too much content + too little interest = a hell of a lot of wasted bandwidth and exponentially fewer satisfied "customers".

Well seeing the original program that I know of was WINzip, I guessed.

The original program that created and extracted .zip files.  That I know of, at least.

Title: Death to Torrent!!!
Post by: Byte Man Zero on October 19, 2005, 09:51:57 am
Torrent has been squashed by the God Protoman, and by the patience of the God of Pain, ProtoBreakMan.

But with all seriosness here, Bit Torrent blew chunks, and I, for one, am glad to see it destroyed on protoman.com.  And let's be honest here, people.  The REAL reason we're all here is the Mega Man music anyway.  The other stuff is cool, but Mega Man owns all our souls!  (or is that just me... crap, I thought that one out loud!)

Protoman, if you EVER decide to do something like that Bittorrent disaster, PLEASE give those of us who can't be on the forums all the timea little warning!  I'm on my knees in a $900 suit!

Post by: Lazlo Falconi on October 19, 2005, 01:30:52 pm
Uhh, it was never about the music with me. I came for the cartoons, and stayed for the forum. The only thing I've ever downloaded in the way of music was the SSBM soundtrack, and I used BitTorrent and it was fine.

Post by: Lord Atmo on October 25, 2005, 08:41:29 pm
i personally don't mind waiting 9 days. it's better than not being able to download anywhere at all. seriously, there are no more other sites that have downloadable MMX mp3's. retrofaction's down now.

...of course if someone were to send me the mp3 of the X-hunter stages in MMX2, i'd love it.  :)
Title: UPDATE [2005.08.13]
Post by: Bladegash on October 26, 2005, 12:33:13 pm
I believe they all had different songs, and I don't believe X2 was on here yet, as I still need to hack the songs outta the game and stuff... >_<
Title: UPDATE [2005.08.13]
Post by: Byte Man Zero on October 26, 2005, 12:36:10 pm
Three words.  Rockman Complete Works.  'Nuff said.

Of course, I STILL have yet to see the songs that were in the secrets menu option of the Mega Man Anniversary Collection.  Still waiting for that.
Title: UPDATE [2005.08.13]
Post by: Swiftman on October 26, 2005, 01:30:47 pm
I need X6 songs.......... NOW! *shot*

I can easily wait a day, so I'm fine. As many know, I'm quite patient.

Post by: Byte Man Zero on October 26, 2005, 02:49:56 pm
Hey, I've waited this long, what's a little longer?

But Protoman, if you get them done by Feb. 8, it'd be a nice b-day gift to me if you zipped 'em up and emailed 'em to me.

Just a suggestion.
