I’ve started to really like this site lately, mainly because they tag their releases in Japanese AND my computer can read it (unlike when something is done in like Chinese Windows so then if you have English Windows it kinda cannot read the encoding >_>)

So the thing is, I use Winamp and they *finally* added in unicode support… well, this was a while ago, but now I’m in the process of retagging all my music… slowly but surely lol. Found this little program called TagScanner - pretty useful.

Anywayyy back to main topic - so they save me time because I don’t have to retag the files myself, and they also post the covers for every release, which is nice because I like cd scans Oh, and they also post the track list so you know what is on the single/album before you download it ^^ The only thing is that they only name the files by track number, and I like to have the track name in the filename as well… so that’s the only extra thing I have to do, but TagScanner does this pretty quick using the tags.

I usually check for their releases on Tokyo Toshokan.

Haven’t really been in ’sharing mood’ lately, heh heh.

Anyway, here’s a direct download site for anime music. Great if you’re just looking for the TV Size version or you don’t need the entire single.

Apparently they also have ddl for anime eps now as well. I tried it out once, and the speeds are pretty decent.

The only catch on this site is that you have to register, and it counts how many downloads (or attempts at dling) you’ve had, which in some weird way makes me guilty (lol). I usually hate signing up for stuff, but I don’t mind this one (actually how I came to register is a bit of a story, but yea ^^;)

As the title of the site will tell you, you can get “Anime Music via HTTP” at this site, thanks to minglong. And if the name ‘minglong’ seems familiar, it is because there is the minglong Tracker.

This is great if you don’t care to get an entire single just for the OP or ED that you liked in some anime.

I would first like to thank LosslessONE again for their Christmas gift ^^ It was a site with their releases in mp3 format, available for DDL. It was lovely. (And before you ask, no, that site is no longer up)

Anyway, LosslessONE is a group that releases mostly anime music and mainly in FLAC format. Hence, LosslessONE. However, apparently they’ve now got a bot with their releases in mp3 format. (I think these are really from another group… and somehow the two groups have affiliations..? Oh well.) I am equally grateful for it. Personally, I don’t have enough hard drive space to store my music in FLAC.

The thing I like about LosslessONE is that you can tell from the release’s file name whether there are scans included. With other music release groups, it’s not always clear.

Here are the bots available in their channel:
LonE|EnoL - the new release bot. LINK TO LonE|EnoL’S PACK LIST
LonE|Giant - the archive bot. LINK TO LonE|Giant’S PACK LIST
lolita - the mp3 bot. LINK TO lolita’S PACK LIST

This site is like YouTube. Great for music videos and the like. I think I was looking for some ORANGE RANGE PVs that I couldn’t find on YouTube, and they were on this site
