Seeqpod down for ’scheduled maintenance’
Music search engine Seeqpod is greeting users with a blank white screen and the message that “We’re down for scheduled maintenance. Please try again later.”.
Hopefully, it’s not a Muxtape-style UNscheduled-maintenance-after-a-row-with-the-RIAA, eh? Seeqpod is used by numerous Web 2.0 sites offering free music streaming, so the downtime is actually bad news for the likes of Favtape, which is currently returning no search results for music at all – presumably due to Seeqpod being offline.
This is one of those moments when building your site based on another site’s technology has its downside…

Sadly, doradio.com is currently also returning no results due to Seeqpod being offline.

charles, that article was from a year ago…

Charles, your source is a year old, and is therefore irrelevant. The suit has certainly been settled by now. Which is good news this time around, since they’ve already won one lawsuit. The site is back up, but I don’t think it’s at 100% right now. Searches on iPhone return no results, but discover searches do, complete with pirate content. I’m thoroughly confused.

This sucks… I suppose I will never be able to re-create the playlists I had which I would play at home on “random” or “shuffle” and for parties. I should have known to save those playlists.

Seeqpod is dead… There goes free music. My guess would be that they were playing pirates music. Busted.
