All of you already know what is happening with VKontakte music. One can argue about copyright for a long time, about what belongs to whom and to us, but in all this the situation was embarrassed by another moment -
along with the ban on listening, the information about your favorite tracks disappears as well. Someone has been collecting them for years!
We want to help users keep their music collection while it is still there. We made a simple page
http://tracksflow.com/vk where you can import information from “My Audio Records” in one time (the subsequent synchronization in this situation is destructive). Soon we will try to add there "My Albums".

Naturally, we do not copy files. it is not necessary. In addition to everything, we began to rebuild the file search algorithm, removed the VC from the priority. Now most of the popular music plays from other open sources. But it’s too early to turn off VC, there is still a lot of rare, a lot of electronic and Russian.
Right now
- There is a hitch with the conclusion of collections> 1000 tracks, it is solved. Regardless, all the metadata is recorded to us, you need to wait a bit.
- Some time ago, VKontakte stopped including "gray" tracks in the issue, but now he changed his mind and this is very good. It is possible that again will stop
Update number 1
Now, at the same time, there is a large queue for the preservation of collections and the base is barely moving. We have delayed this procedure so that the site does not lie. We will begin to save the full lists as the load drops and we will notify everyone of the completion.
Update number 2
Vkontakte blocked our application. Without explanation. We wrote a letter asking for clarification of the situation, since we did not violate the rules for using the API. We are working on alternative methods and we will solve this issue. However, I wonder what it can be connected with? Any thoughts?
Update number 3
More than a day after blocking our VKontakte application, we received a
response from the moderator . Difficult to express our emotions.
Solemn update number 4
Everything, we were removed from the black list and unban the application. The collection salvage works like a VKontakte connection.
