Download playlist or songs from 8tracks.

Many times I come across songs on 8tracks which I am not able to find from other sources. Little bit of googling and searching around, I didn't find a reliable way of doing the same. So, I decided to write a script for me to do that.

For the benefit of larger audience, I have hosted it on one of my servers. You can access it from:

http://beedio.com/8tracks.html

Just go there an paste the 8tracks playlist url in the input field and press Fetch.

Its a simple Js script which utilises the 8tracks apis to simulate the play of the song and allow a download or play link where the permissions are available. The urls to download or play individual songs would get listed.

As it simulates play of song, so this script would take some time to go and fetch all the urls for download. Ideally, one should press fetch and then come back after few hours to the tab to see all the urls in the list.

I have tried to follow the norms of 8tracks as much as possible, if any infringement of copyright or api usage policy is found then please do let me know and I would take it offline.

Why India Hasn’t Built Its GPT Moment (Yet)

No Amazon-style platform. Why? Innovation Isn’t Accidental—It’s Engineered The Zerodha Daily Brief recently asked why India hasn’t built a global product company like Apple. The key argument: India isn’t building for the world. It’s solving for local constraints, scale, and affordability—but global scale requires deep IP, design, and tech differentiation. It’s not just about software, it’s about systems thinking. More importantly, it answers the question: Why do countries innovate? The answer isn’t just genius or ambition—it’s incentives and ecosystems. The U.S. Defense Department, for example, accounted for nearly 70% of federal R&D funding during the Cold War. China has pumped billions into semiconductors and AI with long-term national alignment. These aren’t short-term bets—they are strategic, delibe...

Problems with mysql.sock

Sometimes while working on Linux, mysql.sock may get deleted by mistake due to some softwares.. in such cases any access to mysql wont be possible as the sock file defines the socket connection for mysql. It will give an error of the following type: ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) In such cases follow these steps to reconfigure mysql: Delete the log files with the names: ib_logfile0, ib_logfile1 and ibdata1 in the /var/lib/mysql directory Then type: "mysqld_safe --user=mysql &" This will automatically create mysql.sock file and even the new logs files. This is a very simple solution which I used recently and decided to share with you people.
