well would you look at that, it appears that some education unit grabbed a bunch of myspace music (that was lost) between 2008 > 2010 and archive.org have decided in their infinite wisdom to stick up on the platform, I’m guessing that torrent is gonna be jumping HOT! :)

This set of 450,000 songs was done by an anonymous academic group who were studying music networks and grabbed 1.3 terabytes of mp3s to study from MySpace in roughly 2008-2010 to do so. And someone asked me “hey, do you want these, since they were lost?” Yes, yes I did — From Jason Scott (@textfiles
Kinda awesome for video bloggers, bet you’ll find some classics in there and some tracks that you’ll be able to use copyright free, or at least on some kind of IPFS video host ya know? Credit them thou m’kay? :)
i mean, your mileage may vary, all in the spirit of aural education now!
CLICK TO GRAB YASELF A 512GB SOLID STATE ;) you'll need an enclosure for it, but hey, super fast access, searching, chuck it in the laptop bag for half a million tracks on the go eh? :)
