Just as I was planning an update for my lyrics and scripts based on lyricwiki.org I ran across this annoying message inside my widget dadelyrics:
lyricwiki.org REST service has been banned!
I guess this will be the end of the project, unless I can find a similar service. I think however it will always be playing the rat and the mouse between the majors and who offers lyrics APIs.
Fortunately I could download all the lyrics in my iTunes library prior to this with my massive lyrics ruby script!
Well, it’s time to update the two posts removing the download of the programs that used the lyricwiki interface. Shame!
Let’s hope that new and brilliant services like the ones from lyricwiki won’t be censored anymore.
[...] The downloaded script wont’work anymore because the lyricwiki API has been shut close. Read more here [...]
