Howdy all! I was contacted by a nice person at Cinch Solution about my broken link to Grooveshark in the article below. For those of you that remember, Grooveshark was a music streaming site that ran into trouble with copyright. It was a great service, but probably because it was breaking the rules. I posted the information below back in 2015 to help folks recover their playlists or similar before the site went down.
If you would like to know more about what happened to Grooveshark, check out this link:
Boy, I really miss writing to you all. If only there was something I could do about that.
Love, HolyJuan
