Opentape - The Free, OpenSource Alternative to Muxtape
Tuesday, August 26th, 2008 | Hack, Music, New Beginnings, Open Source, Twitter, WebApps | No Comments

With the recent demise of Muxtape, a group of developers have gotten together to release an open-source online mixtape package named Opentape.
Personally I think this application is far superior to Muxtape, which recently had been forced offline by the RIAA for copyright infringement. You can upload songs to your Opentape server via web or FTP, rename, reorder, customize the style and then share the mix on any website through an embedded player.
They’ve even set up a twitter account so you can stay updated on their progress/new releases via tweets. Find them at @opentape.
Visit opentape.fm to read more about the project, or click here to go to the direct download page.

Apache 1.x, 2.x with PHP 5. Many other webservers will do fine as well.
PHP 5 curl extension is required for update notification and publishing to the Opentape Discovery Network.Supported/Tested Browsers
