Status of Downloads Section
As many of you have noticed the downloads section has vanished from the site, this is for one very simple reason: WordPress is closing down blogs that offer links to downloads.
I’m sure many of you are unhappy with this and I have to say I enjoyed giving users the chance to download a wealth of Japanese music which they would otherwise have little opportunity of hearing.
I’m sorry to close the downloads section but I would like to keep the blog alive, even if it means without downloads.

Ahh.. That is why lots of blog is like gone.
But I dont mind… As long as this blog is alive.
Downloads… I can get over it… I guess…
Aiman 12:49 pm on 2008-03-10 Permalink |
I know a way to get them back.

ahh that sucks.. but it’s good that you’re keepiong the blog alive.
thanks for your hard word and effort that went into the download section while it lasted. i (and i’m sure ALOT of other people) really enjoyed it.

Thanks for your support! Aiman, what exactly are you referring to?

Surprisingly, this is the only blog that I rely on for information. Anyways, I’ve still got torrents ^_^ Thanks for the downloads, and I’ll keep enjoying the blogs!

Aww thats is really bad. I was wondering if we were unable to find a song would we be able to ask you to send it to us??
亜田無 11:25 pm on 2008-03-10 Permalink |
@ Kenny Yi: Thanks! I’m glad you make use of the information provided here.
@ meproject: I wouldn’t mind doing this but around 3000~ people downloaded files each day and there is no way I could possible send 3000 people files by email, it’s just not practical. Who knows, one day downloads may return in a different form. As Kenny Yi states there are torrents.

ehh.. gusun~ gusun~ T_T that is such a shame.

Thanks a lot for the downloads~!

That’s okay. Keeping up with the updates is all we need to know.
By the way, is there another place we can download?
Rosie 4:49 am on 2008-03-11 Permalink |
Aww, I heard about that. Would you be able to link to another site that has all the downloads (say, by chance, you made a weebly account or something easy to handle like that)? Or something like that? You wouldn’t have the download links on the wordpress blog, but it’d be on the site that you’re linking to…am I making sense? ^^;
But I’m glad that you made the decision to remove the downloads instead of letting the blog be shut down though- I enjoy coming by and reading new info about H!P and AKB48 here!

store…
Cie le Vie….
(Sigh, It was good while it lasted…)
Anyway, more power to your blog.

I just wanted to thank you also. I loved getting to know new artists that way and now I have an extensive list of what I want to purchase when I go to Japan. Thanks so much for all your hard work!
I’ll still keep reading! ~_^

Anyway, thank you very much for everything!
亜田無 11:35 am on 2008-03-11 Permalink |
Thanks for all your support guys!
@Rosie: I can’t link to sites that offer downloads either.
ThoughtBroker 1:01 pm on 2008-03-11 Permalink |
Could you link to a website, that links to ANOTHER website that offers the downloads.
brandon 6:42 pm on 2008-03-11 Permalink |
haha that’s funny. link to a site that links to a site that offers downloads.
but if it means keeping this site around i’m glad you took the downloads down because i really enjoy this site. i pretty much rely on this and some boys blog and since that’s gone now i’m glad i have this one to tether to.

Well, when the downloads sections are still open. I bookmarked the link only to morning musume downloads. Then, when i opened it ‘that’ day, i noticed some changes to your blog. So i thought you are updating the downloads too, but it turns out you are closing the downloads section. But still, now i can still download some morning musume songs cause i bookmarked that link.
keana 8:44 pm on 2008-03-11 Permalink |
i was wondering is it possible to send us the link of ur media fire upload ?
Manstereo 7:13 am on 2008-03-12 Permalink |
wait, did you just deleted ‘that’ link?
Rosie 7:26 am on 2008-03-12 Permalink |
@亜田無: Aw, that sucks. WordPress must have been getting complaints from companies if they’ve started cracking down that hard. Well, no matter 8D the site’s still really good without downloads (it’s like one of the first places I go to check up on H!P news hehe).
mwd 8:38 am on 2008-03-12 Permalink |
hmm…if you wanted to start giving music again, you can start a profile on http://www.multiply.com and post all your links there.

Well… the only place that I’ve found downloadable H!P music is finally down. I’ve been wondering when this will happen. BTW I’ve never found any working BT files with H!P music on it if you guys have a site or something could you introduce me to it??
