Title: Creating a playlist with LMA URLs?
Post by: BradM on August 10, 2011, 11:04:48 AM

Is there any way for me to take the URLs to a set of particular tracks (e.g., MP3 files) on LMA pages, and bundle them up into a "playlist" file that I can e-mail to people, who then load it into their media player of choice? I know I can just include the URLs in the body of the e-mail, but the tracks would be listenable one-by-one, and I want to create more of an album.

Thanks,
Brad

I did some googling, and think I found the answer: create a text file with each URL on its own line (and with comment lines beginning with "#"), and save it with the extension "m3u". I did this just now, loaded the file into WinAmp, and it worked fine.

Aloha,
Brad

iTunes will also play m3u playlists.

This can be useful in reverse, if you get a playlist you like, you can load it in a text editor, and get the URL's to download the source files!
