Popdex 0wned: Shanti speaks

Shanti Bradford of Popdex says:

Glimpse Into My Mp3 Collection (circa 1999)

Xeni Jardin over at Boing Boing discovered that the Popdex server had been 0wnzer'd by some script kiddies, and replaced with a bad Mp3 collection full of old songs from 1999 and before. Here's a screenshot. Well, that was just my old Mp3 collection. The server Popdex runs on can actually boot to 5 different OSes. I needed to get at my old Mp3 collection that is on one of the hard-drives. Rather than trying to mount it under Linux, I just booted up to Win2k for an hour and copied the Mp3s over. I actually didn't realize that under that OS, I had setup the web root to be to my Mp3 directory! Doh! Sorry for the confusion! and yes… I do have an Mp3 directory called "Chick Music", which is where I put my Ani Difranco & other chick rocker songs. in unrelated news…. Popdex.com stats skyrocket after the normal content is replaced with 7 GB of Mp3s instead.

Update: Shanti, I'm sorry I called your '90s music collection lame. I confess: I was just frustrated because all the download links were timing out. If you came late to Shanti's MP3 collection that night, you missed the party. Link to previous BoingBoing post, Discuss
