Please enjoy jwz mixtape 140. I felt like making an audio-only mixtape this time. I haven't done that in five years.
This will self-destruct in two weeks.
If you open it in Safari, it's not seekable, but if you copy the URL and open it in iTunes, it's seekable and has per-track metadata. (Which I guess means that <previously> is no longer entirely true.)
Our irregularly programmed schedule will return next week.
Oh man. I was just listening to a five-years-ago jwz mixtape last week and wishing there were more. Excellent.
The deleting, is it because of relevance? Do you have a preferred "you might be interested in" suggestion avenue?

I believe your Icecast metadata is being inserted at an incorrect interval for some reason, although I've not been able to determine why. In particular, iTunes playback is glitchy and does not provide track information, and inspecting the stream shows:
1) A missing newline in one place and an extra in another the headers:

2) The first Icecast metadata appears at offset 17315.
I'm not sure how either of these things could happen with the versions of audiofs.pl and slowcat.c that you have currently up -- are you running a different version?
Oops. I think I fixed it? It's in mixtape.pl, not audiofs.pl. I probably ought to combine those two. They duplicate a lot of code.
Yup, it's all good now.
I nuked mixtape.pl and made those be handled by audiofs.pl as well. Let me know if I broke anything? Hopefully seeking and metadata still work in both the webcast archives and the mixtapes.
Sorry for the delay; everything looks ok on my side still.
Oh, also apropos nothing (other than this news article), if you're social with pmarca, please tell him to keep it classy. Also, he's a dick: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/06/05/marc_andreessen_on_snowden/
I totally remember that Moev song! Haven't heard it in like 20 years! Awesome! I think I even used to have the CD but the rest of the songs sucked so I sold it.
The stream keeps getting stuck on "buffering" for me. But I am not going to suggest that someone email me a download link because that would be wrong. dougorleans@gmail.com
Firebug (or web dev network sniffer lite of your choice) is your friend.
