Scene Music Tracker like SoftMP3 needs to be emerged
Biggest blow in the recent shutdowns IMHO has been the shutdown of SoftMP3 which was Possibly the best Scene MP3 Tracker with excellent content and pretty good pre-times as well .
Even tho What and Waffles are there to cover almost everything , there is a void in the Scene MP3 Tracker department now .
STMusic had the chance to step up to become the no.1 MP3 Tracker which it did not really grab the chance during the Oink Shutdown . the shutdowns has again indirectly given them a seond chance to renovate themselves and lift themselves again , but i really doubt they will be able to do it . FileMP3 retention is pretty poor and contents are pretty less .
Music Torrent sites What and Waffles are similar to RevTT and IPtorrents in a way that all 4 have a huge database of scene and non-scene contents . but now , what the torrent scene lacks is a pure Scene MP3 site like SoftMP3 . An uncluttered , No-Nonsense Pure Scene MP3 Tracker .
of course i do understand that this may not be the best time to open a torrent site due to the legal hassles , but when Oink when down What and Waffles emerged .
Lets hope a Solid Pure Scene Mp3 Tracker emerges in the recent future to cover the void left by the fantastic SoftMP3 Tracker .

Re: Scene Music Tracker like SoftMP3 needs to be emerged
I agree. A (temporary?) workaround are some of the better 0-day trackers, which usually have a very good and complete scene mp3 section.
STMusic seems to be more down than not unfortunately. A pity really.
-
Re: Scene Music Tracker like SoftMP3 needs to be emerged
Yeah, I complete agree. Actually, softmp3 wasn't the only blow. Let's not forget about mp3nerds, which was very similar as an all scene tracker.

Re: Scene Music Tracker like SoftMP3 needs to be emerged
just use the mp3 section at scc.
-
Re: Scene Music Tracker like SoftMP3 needs to be emerged
There are plenty of sources for 0day mp3's.
-
Re: Scene Music Tracker like SoftMP3 needs to be emerged
Sure, but are there many quality bittorrent trackers dedicated to scene mp3s? If yes, I'd like to hear a few names, other than the ones mentioned already, of course.

The retention at SCC does not compare at ALL to softmp3.

I doubt VIPMusic will ever be able to match softmp3's 1/3 download count and still have 25k+ torrents. They sell upload FFS, but I can't think of any decent alternatives... I'm gonna miss softmp3 and it's awesome community. :cry:

The only thing I can think of that comes close would be something like warez-bb, but that is rapidshare.

Thanks for bringing that up. I had actually forgotten that as an option, and I think I might go back to using that on occasion. \
Everyone should keep in mind that Soulseek is a great alternative to torrenting for music. I'd still prefer to get 0day music from a reputable tracker because of possible initial dupes and transcodes but for older releases (which is what made softmp3 so awesome) slsk gets the job done well.

Re: Scene Music Tracker like SoftMP3 needs to be emerged
Dang, what a blow. It was without doubt the best scene tracker out there. No other site even comes close. You get new releases everywhere but none have archive section for older scene mp3 releases. :(
-
Re: Scene Music Tracker like SoftMP3 needs to be emerged
SCC and HT (HeavenTracker.org) - all 0Day mp3's releases :)
-
Re: Scene Music Tracker like SoftMP3 needs to be emerged
There was no music scene tracker that can compare to softmp3, its archive category was just awesome.
It has been a great loss, it was the best site for scene music releases by far, I am missing it a lot.
In fact I don't know any tracker of scene releases specialized in music (besides Filemp3, but it's for new stuff, only, since there's no archive category there), STMusic was something like that in the past but that didn't last, the site changed and it turned into another general music tracker.

Re: Scene Music Tracker like SoftMP3 needs to be emerged
At the moment the SCC mp3 section and TranceRoute is fine for me regarding scene mp3 as I prefer this genre.
http://www.0daymusic.org/ is pretty good for direct downloads.

lol .. i used SCC mp3/0day page for mp3downloads ..

Re: Scene Music Tracker like SoftMP3 needs to be emerged
SCC's scene release page is pretty good but I do wish it was sortable by genre.

Yeh this is probably the one thing that it lacks.

Re: Scene Music Tracker like SoftMP3 needs to be emerged
Im with patiesmiz, the inexistence of trackers with a scene archive section like softmp3 for music and SweDVDr for movies that's the major hole in the BT scene actually! :(
-
Re: Scene Music Tracker like SoftMP3 needs to be emerged
Best thing on Scc, besides the good speeds, is that the MP3 torrents are freeleech.
Filemp3 is sortable by genres, and it is open registration. Very good site.
But what I am missing the most is the Archive category softmp3 used to have.

Plus the search function sucks, and retention isn't really good as a music tracker (although it's pretty good for a 0day tracker)
-
Re: Scene Music Tracker like SoftMP3 needs to be emerged
curious no one talks about filemp3.
sure... retention sucks.

In v2 they will categorize into genres.

Re: Scene Music Tracker like SoftMP3 needs to be emerged
Are HT and TV ever open for signup?
-
Re: Scene Music Tracker like SoftMP3 needs to be emerged
HT used to be an open tracker last year , or atleast used to be open in between for signups . not sure which TV tracker your referring to .

Basically answered your question yourself. FileMP3 is old school, and I'm glad it still is around, but due to TTL, the retention is rather limited.

Re: Scene Music Tracker like SoftMP3 needs to be emerged
Join HT irc channel and ask for an invite. At TV u should know someone with an invite.
Great mp3 scene uploaders btw!!

Re: Scene Music Tracker like SoftMP3 needs to be emerged
