Is there an option to download ALL Amiga Remixes (amigaremix.com) somehow, like RKO offers yearly torrents (e.g.RKO-2018 Complete), or do I have to click every single file or use a spider to grab em all?
thanks and have nice day!
guess this isnt the best place to ask. forum was linked on amigaremix as "forum" LOL
guess ill just use a bot program

While this is a working method that I so far haven't put any countermeasure upon, it's not really the best way, and it'll soon be void because I'm about to restructure the whole site and at the same time also change the file names to better reflect reality...
I noticed a bunch of requests from the same IP a couple of days ago and could almost guess this was what was happening, but I didn't really bother at that point. I find it quite fine that someone wants the whole collection, so I guess I'll allow this for now. It MIGHT be so that I'll rate-limit the amount of requests, though, if this is used too much. I have currently no plans to set up any full-site torrent or something, which is why I'm letting this one slip for the time being.

What's the issue with torrents? I think Kwed's Torrents for the previous years system works well.
Creating the torrent is the easy part (see below), it's getting the initial seed up and running that's a bit of a bother for my setup - I'm fairly confident that the process would be way smoother if I just ran something like Transmission on macOS/Windows, instead of using Deluge on a Raspberry Pi to get the ball rollling.
There are some other things to take into consideration, though, since all the files stored on disk are simply named with their ID as a filename, so I'd basically need to generate a treestructure of links. So, possible to solve, but won't happen at this point in time. I need to get the new version of the site out the door first, then we'll see... But good to know who to bother with this when that time comes.
I guess a lot of fans would be happy about it.
Thrilled for the new site.
Also noticed your text over there and wish you a quick recovery! Take care, m8!
Oh, god. Just noticed that I've been registered here for 20 years.
This is now prepared for in the new engine that was released today. It'll appear at https://www.amigaremix.com/archive once I've had the time to go through the whole list of remixes and made sure that they are correctly bagged and tagged, because I've found quite a lot of inconsistencies with some of the older tracks and I haven't gotten around to sort that yet.
