earFeeder: customized music-news
want to receive all the latest news, blogposts, tourdates, videos of your favorite artists? earFeeder (beta) scans your local harddrive for media-files and builds a customized RSS-feed syndicating various sources matching the artists found in your library. since the media-scan is based on a Java-applet, earFeeder doesn’t require local installation.

David (from earFeeder) here. Let me know your feed id, and i’ll check it out. drop me a note at david@earfeeder.com. Perhaps there is no news on those artists but i’ll check it out.
thx for your note david, I’ve sent you my feed-URL!
