JavaScript Jukebox Support

Why I no longer support the JavaScript Jukebox

---

I wrote this little piece of goofiness over 10 years ago. Although fun, it's largely outlived its usefulness in today's Internet. Or at least its usefulness to me.

MIDI files, once ubiquitous in the days of dialup because of their relatively small size, have lost much of their appeal with the advent of broadband. MP3s and streaming audio pretty much killed the need, and the ham-fisted tactics of the Music Industry (which has little to do with art, and a whole lot to do with money) killed the desire. As for me, to make the Jukebox work with the current crop of web browsers would require a fair amount of recoding -- something I have neither the time and inclination to do.

So I've decided it's time to let the once useful JavaScript Jukebox just fade away, a memory to old-timers who remember when JavaScript was a New Thing.

I've left the code (pretty much as it was seven years ago) for those who are interested. I may, if I have the time some day, tinker with the code, but don't expect much. If you're interested, you can read about the Jukebox and how it came into being.

Thanks to all who enjoyed and supported it.
