  1. Hummm...

    "Nearly impossible" as far as 'Pandora's Jar' is concerned, i bet, but there are other avenues waiting to be explored which

    open the door to multiple browser/plug-in brands/versions.  There's no need to make more noise around the next state-of-

    the-art wave by namely pointing at it in here but i have hope of easier days forward.

  2. Hi,

    Access outside of the U.S.A. doesn't have to be difficult, i produced three modules for Slax/NimbleX LiveCDs

    which made it very simple:  install and forget.  The problem was that these were totally ignored, probably

    because that's Linux stuff.  As a consequence, this project never went past the next step which should have

    been to fix the [Grab] button...  There are much more versatile solutions coming anyway.  Pandora's Jar can

    be killed once and for all very easily, the Pandora people just need to take advantage from it's very specific

    needs!  The way of the future points at utilities capable of supporting multiple browser softwares (not just

    'FireFox'), in combination with whatever plug-in version suits you better.  Right now the whole contraption

    holds together only if you have the correct software/versions mix, while the next generation utilities won't

    care about that anymore and beyond:  so-called tight counter-measures will become obsolete.  The original

    authors of Pandora's Jar have left this forum it seems, a few good people tried to give Pandora's Jar a new

    life but in the end its design needs a major revamping effort which will be difficult to justify, ultimately...

    Fully automated captures outside the US would be possible using a modified portable version of TOR but it

    might take a while so sit down and relax!  You may find some kind of proxies that work in the meantime, good

    luck to you!  Perhaps PandoraRIP would work with TOR but i'm waiting for the Linux versions:  i don't want

    this kind of setup to be installed on my PC permanently so only Linux Live CDs seem satisfying to me.  It's

    only a matter of time before Pandora starts working again for me, i could live without it for months and there

    was always the possibility of doing manual captures under Linux if the urge felt too strong.  Be patient, when

    the right people will focus on this it will be worth the wait as you'll get access to other on-line radios as well.

    Euh...  But my crystal ball gets foggy!  I can't tell hos much time we need to wait for a major outbreak.  I'd

    say months instead of weeks but fortune telling has never been an exact science!...

    :lol:

  3. Hi,

    I think it's time to look elsewhere.  I just loaded 'FireFox v2.0.0.12' a few minutes ago with

    the 'ShockWave Flash v9.0 r115' and 'JAVA SE v1.6.0_03' plugins installed.  A customized

    version of 'Portable TOR' provided access to www.pandora.com while a secret ingredient

    allowed me to capture the .MP3 files with 19 characters long filenames composed of random

    letters & numbers.  This is not a definite solution, there are severe limitations including the

    filenames and tags but this clearly demonstrated to me that 'Pandora's Jar' now obstructs

    the path to less restrictive installations where MS-IE, FireFox, Opera and other browsers,

    not to mention a mix of up-to-date plugins, euh...  are finally allowed.  It's been done once,

    i have no doubt it can be done again but the most potent gurus among us will need to stop

    beating dead meat like 'Pandora's Jar' and, no, i'm sorry but i'm not among those people...

    Oh, and i almost forgot to specify that the secret ingredient works on other music sites too.

  4. Hi everyone,

    This is a short note to let you know that those who only wish to listen at Pandora should check this:

    http://anonymityanywhere.com/incognito/

    You may have to 1st Log-In as "root" (PassWord="root") to add this to '/etc/tor/torrc':

    ExitNodes server1,server2,{...},xyzusaserver,
    
    StrictExitNodes 1

    The "Exit" configuration must be re-enabled, of course, or you can just try to pretend you're a

    citizen of the United States using the corresponding 'TORK' feature (i'm not sure the later trick

    is going to work unless you restart TOR with this option, though)...  FireFox is version 2.0.0.11

    with multilingual support (just like KDE under Gentoo, by the way!) and includes these plug-ins:

    AdBlock Plus v0.7.5.3

    Cookie Safe v1.3.5

    DOM Inspector v1.8.1.11

    FireGPG v0.4.8

    NoScript v1.3.1

    Quick Locale Switcher v1.6.3.7

    Referer Control v0.8.9

    This Gentoo Linux (v2.6.23-gentoo-r3) anonymizer Live CD depends on the use of:

    TOR v0.1.2.19

    TORK v0.26

    Trans-Proxy-TOR v0.1.0

    Vidalia v0.0.16

    You now have more background music options for when you kiss your tender half at Valentine day!

    :wink:

  5. I've been getting those errors for six months with one short interruption that is long forgotten.

    Lets face it, we're beating a dead horse:  those who make it work can't share their configuration

    even if they try as there's always something that slips thru which makes others search to no end.

    Oh, it might work at some point, for some time...  but what we know for sure is that it will break

    down again, as a consequence of the way Pandora's Jar has been designed and built, it seems.

    Try the MeeMix thread instead, songs are pre-tagged before you'll even think of collecting them:
