solver Wrote:Sorry guys but I have some bad news. I can't access the API anymore. I used moovida's grooveshark service to get a session id but it's been shut down. I'm scouring the internet for a sollution. In short, grooveshark doesn't work anymore.

I've contacted grooveshark to see if I can get access to their web service API. Fingers crossed.

i just checked grooveshark on xbox and everythings working

all songs play playlists show up settings work login works 100% for me anyway and i didnt even modify it

It will stop working when your session id expires. Afterwards you won't be able to renew it and the script will unfortunately stop working for you as well. But for now, consider yourself lucky ;-)

I have some good news. Grooveshark for XBMC is not a lost cause. The bad news is that I'll have to switch to another API. To my surprise, grooveshark has nothing against the groovewalrus API - they even encourage it (Have a look here: http://getsatisfaction.com/grooveshark/t...pplication)

So, I'll start migrating to the new API if I don't receive an API key from grooveshark. I'll keep you posted.

A quick update. Grooveshark replied to my request and I am getting an API key though I don't know when.
