I just heard this song and I think it may become quite popular, (I mean I took note of it after just listening to it a few times) even though I've never heard of the band. It's weird that the song was released in 2005 on their first album and I don't know of it (guess I should keep my ears open for great new stuff). It's on their second album as well so I guess it must have been semi-popular at least. If you'd like to know more, the links above may satisfy you. Anyway, take a listen, and by the way, that is not my imeem site. :)

Here's another site that lets you download from rapidshare using (other people's) premium accounts. Basically it operates via similar logic as other rapidshare premium link sites. The steps to download a file from rapidshare are as follows:
- Paste a link inside the rapidshare-link box and press enter or click the button beside the box.
- Next, if your file requires more votes then spread the rapidshit links to other people (see below for an explanation on this) and come back to download the file via the rapidshit link. Otherwise click on the download link that is hosted on another file host with no limits.
Speaking of differences, a big and welcome difference is that there are a lot of premium accounts available at this site. And by a lot of accounts, I really do mean plenty. The last time I checked, there were about 100+ premium accounts that were working according to the site! That means that a few hundred gigs of files can be served each day! I'm quite sure that beats any other (public) rapidshare premium link site hands down.
Before you get too excited at the prospect of leeching from the site, you should be aware that the site has certain protections against leechers. The most prominent of those is the file voting that is activated for all files. Currently 5 people must click on the same rapidshit link for it to be uploaded to the other file host. If you download regularly from rapidshare, they recommend getting your own premium account (as with other similar sites).
There are also some handy features available on this site. If you have several links you want to download you can copy and paste these links into the convertor to convert these links into rapidshit links. You can then spread these links in forums, etc. Another useful feature is the ability to keep track of files you have accessed in your current browser session. This allows you to quickly select a file for download after you have converted it into a rapidshit link. Additional help is available at the support link on the site.
As you can see, this service is very useful and handy for those without rapidshare premium accounts. If you intend to use this site (or any other rapidshare premium link sites), please do not abuse them in any way.

The last rapidshare post was quite popular and got quite a bit of attention. Since I was away for a while, I shall return with another rapidshare post. Hope this one gets as popular or perhaps even more.
In general, if you're from one of the unlucky countries where your ip is shared and getting a (free) rapidshare download going is harder than striking the lottery, you have several options available (that I know of).
- You could get a premium rapidshare account.
- You could ask someone to download it for you.
- You could use a proxy to bypass the download restrictions.
- You could download it from a remote server.
If you're reading this far, then the first and second options are probably out of the question. Heck, if you manage to get a (working) premium rapidshare account from the dozens of (fake) premium account logins, then I congratulate you. But then why would you be reading this paragraph? :)
So, on to the third point - downloading through a proxy. If you're fairly competent with google then guiding you through this would be a waste of time. So I'm going to assume you will need some help.
Those should get you enough proxies to last for a while. However, if you want something automated, check out Rapidkill without server. It supports more than just rapidshare as well. You could also use those proxies with it.
Lastly, downloading from a remote server. Here are some premium link generator servers that will generate free rapidshare premium links.

Digger thommykno: That's incredible. How could that improve traffic flow?
Digger Blackmane: It doesn't, it annoys people so much that they take a different route and complete avoid the situation.
Lol, and I thought normal four lane roundabouts were bad.

If you are somewhat observant and have been reading this blog, you would have noticed that I've just added a widget from Who's Amung Us.
A slightly interesting quirk that I found was that the widget was not really dependent on anything other than http referrers. This actually makes it quite unreliable since referrers can
- be turned off easily esp. in Opera, F12 -> Enable referrer logging. This would reduce the number of visitors to your site, but who's counting? :)
- be modified/faked/manipulated with little effort. Essentially this would inflate your website stats, but who's checking? :)
- The part you can customise is where the x's are: http://whos.amung.us/show/xxxxxxxx.
- Doing this may cause your widget to be shared by others, since fixing your widget link to something memorable increases the chances that it will match someone else's choice. This may not have a negative effect, since referrers are taken into account.
- The part which you can customise, i.e. the very last part of the url, has to be at least eight characters long. It can be longer than 8 characters but only the first 8 are taken into account. As far as I can tell, you can only insert alphanumeric characters into the url. For example, mine is http://whos.amung.us/show/tkhereblog. However, this is equivalent to http://whos.amung.us/show/tkherebl.
- Remember to change the image url AND the anchor link for the image. Example: My image url is http://whos.amung.us/widget/tkhereblog. My anchor link for the image is http://whos.amung.us/show/tkhereblog.
