Wait, so no Brain Damage and Eclipse? No Prologue and Twilight? No Foreplay and Long Time?
"Foreplay/Long Time" has never been split for any official release I'm aware of, so it's always been considered one song.

I've unilaterally put the replay interval to a week. I hope nobody minds, but if you do, I suppose you ought to familiarise yourself with the definition of "unilateral" and be quiet.

So what iOS apps are people using to stream the station these days? The "official" one is Waft, but presumably some others work just as well.

Never heard of Waft, but TuneIn Radio works nicely for me. Waft is free though, and TIR is $0.99.

If there's something I've discovered, it's that goons love David Bowie. And Kate Bush.

GBS-FM Rule #1: Search before uploading!

GBS-FM Rule #0: Fix your loving tags before you even consider searching!

Some examples of what not to do:

Albums:
"Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou Soundtrack, The"

Seriously? "The" at the end? This is an internet radio station, not your C:\Music\ folder. Clean it up.

"Power Windows [The Rush Remasters]"
"Does This Look Infected? (U.K. Retail)"
"The Salmon Dance 12'' Promo [CHEMSTDJ26]"
"American Idiot-ADVANCE"
"Ten Thousand Fists (ADVANCE)"

Nobody cares what your source is, clean it up.

Artists:
Tom Petty And The Heartbreaker
Seriously?

Dylan, Bob
Seriously?!

Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers
It's fine, but you'll notice the vast majority of tracks are already under Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers. Fix yours to match before uploading.

Yeah, I got rid of orphan adoption. The original intention was that people who had originally uploaded songs could get them back after the move - obviously that changed quite considerably as time went on but I think that since anyone who uploaded songs on the old station has had quite enough time to re-adopt any songs they were particularly proud of, adoption has fully fulfilled its purpose and is kinda pointless now. If anybody has strong feelings about it I can bring it back - the bug you're talking about was a symptom of my removing it, not the cause - but otherwise we may as well just let it rest I think.

Eh, I wouldn't have turned it off, but w/e. There's still plenty of neat stuff out there I'm finding.

I upgraded to iOS 5 on the weekend, and now when I zoom in on the site, every DIV zooms simultaneously, rather than the site as a whole page, is anyone else seeing this? I'd be curious if it affects other WebKit browsers.

Before (slightly zoomed in, correct behaviour on iOS 4)





After (zoomed in, bad behaviour on iOS 5)

So I'm uploading songs and one turns out very strange - song name shows up as 'H' and album as ')'. I did rename it successfully tho. The other song won't show up at all, and I tried two different mp3 files.

This station has something against early 90's Croatian punk! :argh:

Just make sure you have proper ID3v2 tags and clear out any ID3 1.x tags first. I mean you should be doing that anyway since 1.x tags are loving useless.
