As a heads up for anyone who doesn't realize how much music this is, that wget will slurp >100gb of stuff (or would, if it weren't for sever load).

Using Coral CDN:

  wget -rl 0 -np -A .mp3 http://thenine.ca.nyud.net/essential/

Nogood, checkout the robots.txt

Since Coral considers itself a distributed caching proxy rather than a crawler, it doesn't respect robots.txt. It does respect the relevant cache-control headers, like "no-cache", but this site doesn't appear to set them.

However, the main problem here is that Coral doesn't cache any files >50mb, so almost none of these are cached. The few <50mb do seem to be, though, e.g.: http://thenine.ca.nyud.net/essential/1998/1998.01.01%20-%20E...

Yup, thenine.ca is blocking coral cache for .mp3 :(

-e robots=off

However aren't they copyrighted?!

Or install extension.fm :)
