Hundreds of tracks by bands appearing at this year’s South by Southwest have been compiled into a massive torrent that you can download for free.
The DRM-less collection can be got at here, at the website of one Greg Hewgill. SXSW organisers have decided to gather the masses of mp3s they’re sent by bands before the event for the last three years, but for whatever reason have so far declined to do so in 2008.
The mp3s are all freely available at the showcase’s website, though, so Hewgill took it upon himself to throw all the tracks together into one big file which is obviously a lot more convenient to download. And what thanks does he get? The chance to be run down on sites like this. Get a job/girlfriend/atlas, wasteman!
The torrent contains MP3s from 764 acts and weighs almost 3.5GB. SXSW runs from the 12th ‘til the 16th of March in Austin, Texas.
