After a few failures with some of the other ones, I found the
BEST mp3 Audio Converter online that will take any You Tube video, extract the audio and give you an mp3 Music File to Download, all for free and legal too.
There is just about no music you can't find on You Tube, so you can easily make your own library of mp3s to store on your smart phone or mp3 player, or you can alternatively store them on any number of
FREE cloud sites that deal with audio files. As you may have noticed, I am currently in the process of setting up a
Kollapsnik Radio Station on
Spreaker, you get 10 HOURS of free storage there. At an average of 4 min/track, you can store up to 150 tracks there on your own account, for free with unlimited bandwidth too!
I'm currently working my way through the Diner Juke Box, where Diners have dropped their favorite music tracks over the years, mainly as You Tube music videos. Once I get them converted and uploaded to
Kollapsnik Radio, Diners will be able to open Kollapsnik Radio in another window, and play a few favorite Tracks, as well as up to 30 min long
Kollapse Talk Shows which will feature Interviews, Rants and Kollapse Music, once I figure out how to sew everything together anyhow. I also hope to be able to take Phone Calls via Skype on the new
Skype Kollapsnik account.

That may take some time to get worked out though.
I will hopefully create a few shows that are just Music, which you can play in the background while you
Surf the Diner. Call it
"Mood Music". lol.
I can also tie these shows into our
Diner Soundcloud account, where we have
UNLIMITED storage on the Pro Account which we pay for. So after a week or so on the free account at Spreaker for recent Shows, I'll delete the old ones there to make room for new ones, but the old ones will still be available to play on Soundcloud.
This new feature will
REALLY set the Diner apart from all the other Kollapse Blogs. While a few folks like Kunstler and Chris Martenson do fairly regular podcasts,
NOBODY else is doing a regular Kollapse Radio Show.
The main difficulties here are in getting myself up to speed on the engineering and organizing all our Content into 30 minute Shows, which will also be available for download to your Iphone so you can listen to the shows while you drive the daily commute or dig holes for your permaculture garden!
Not sure yet when the first real "Show" will be available on
Kollapsnik Radio, but you can check in there periodically as I put up different tracks and experiment around with the system.
Kollapsnik Radio on Spreaker can also be tied in to our Facepalm, Twitshit and Google+ accounts, so all new Radio shows will get announced via the Social Media as well.
All in all, I figure this should further increase the Diner circulation. After a short Lull Period, we are now creeping our way back up to our previous Peak of 90,000 Page Hits/Month on Google Analytics, which doesn't include the larger number of page hits we get here in the Forum, although from fewer visitors. Six Figures for the Blog is well within range I think by the end of summer.
Kollapsnik Radio. COMING SOON TO A LAPTOP NEAR YOU.
