Why do you want to mirror content? In any case, you can get new content via http://ccmixter.org/media/feed/atom/audio If you want to mirror all content an unlimited length feed is also available, updated daily, at http://ccmixter.org/dump/atom.xml though I'd suggest using very judiciously (you probably don't even want to open that URL in a browser, it will take a long time to render). > and the ability to financially > contribute to the artists. This would be a great extension. Could be as simple as a paypal link, assuming you have email addresses for artists. Or something more complicated if you want the site to be involved. > So I think I will work with ccHost, and try > to build off of it and make some plugins down the road. > > (Side note, perhaps this is better placed on the feature request list but: > After playing with ccHost, I was thinking one thing that might make it > easier for artists to say what samples they used, is to create a > Sample Bank for each registered artist.

I encourage you to do so. :-) I agree it would be a great feature. -- http://wiki.creativecommons.org/User:Mike_Linksvayer _______________________________________________ cc-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ibiblio.org/mailman/listinfo/cc-devel
