Hi
Actually by coincidence I discovered yesterday that I can donwload mp3's
from soundcloud even if they are not for download. I'm on ubuntu and
using firefox. If I go to tools -> programming -> web console (or
whatever it is called in english) and if I go to network activity and
reload the page I can see all the get and post requests... at some point
I will see one for an mpeg file, then I can right click and do "copy as
curl", then I can just go into a terminal, paste the curl command and
pipe the result into a file. Not sure if I'm using the flash or html5,
but I assume that if firefox can see the /get request, it's html5 ?
best,
Miguel
