![]() They will stop working at the end of the year. I’ll be adding more to this as we go along:ĭoes it mean the current ‘non-free’ builds stop working today? Join me and let’s make it fulfil it’s motto and stay the one and only “By DJs, for DJs” app out there. Without revenue, I’ll continue to support and develop it more as a labour of love, but user support will minimal and sporadic. By selling Record Buddy as a product and then as a service, I’m profiting from the poor practices of the DJ industry, albeit in a bid to provide a solution to this bad practice.Īs of today, October 9th 2020, Rekord Buddy is a free app and will become open source software before the end of the year, free for anyone to use and modify as they wish. ![]() ![]() ![]() It was the first to market and enjoyed enough success that I could make it my full time gig.īut recently I’ve been struggling with something, and that’s how my beliefs conflict with my actions. This has been a passion project over many years. I find this approach to be unacceptable, which is why I made Rekord Buddy. It’s nothing more than a way to tie paying customers to their respective products, and offers no real feature advantage, nor does it encourage the innovation our industry badly needs. The restrictive walled garden approach to library management benefits only the industry. The Archive Team Panic Downloads are full pulldowns of currently extant websites, meant to serve as emergency backups for needed sites that are in danger of closing, or which will be missed dearly if suddenly lost due to hard drive crashes or server failures. Otherwise, you are free to dig into the stacks to see what you may find. If you are seeking to browse the contents of these collections, the Wayback Machine is the best first stop. Our collection has grown to the point of having sub-collections for the type of data we acquire. Thanks to the generous providing of disk space by the Internet Archive, multi-terabyte datasets can be made available, as well as in use by the Wayback Machine, providing a path back to lost websites and work. This collection contains the output of many Archive Team projects, both ongoing and completed. The main site for Archive Team is at and contains up to the date information on various projects, manifestos, plans and walkthroughs. ![]() Our projects have ranged in size from a single volunteer downloading the data to a small-but-critical site, to over 100 volunteers stepping forward to acquire terabytes of user-created data to save for future generations. Archive Team believes that by duplicated condemned data, the conversation and debate can continue, as well as the richness and insight gained by keeping the materials. With the original point of contention destroyed, the debates would fall to the wayside. History is littered with hundreds of conflicts over the future of a community, group, location or business that were "resolved" when one of the parties stepped ahead and destroyed what was there. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history. Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. ![]()
