Apparently this is just a skin on a crappy mp3 download site.

"Grooveshark.io appears to be little more than a clone (or a skin) of an “MP3 search engine” called MP3Juices.se, which I only recommend visiting if you’re a big fan of ads (and crappy UI). The copyright pages are identical, the privacy policies are identical and, most importantly, the catalogs of available MP3s are identical."[1]

Nope, that is not Grooveshark. Some of the music I created has only been uploaded to Grooveshark, and this false flag website can't find those tracks.

Wow, just found that Grooveshark (the real Grooveshark) has closed. I just used it the other day and it looked like they'd just done a re-design.

Sad day :( Any way to recover playlists? There were a lot of amazing songs I'd discovered through their radio feature, but didn't write down elsewhere.

Their re-design was in the works for awhile, I believe the preview was available at least 4 months ago.

Is this by the same people as grooveshark.com?

Seems like they have identified what they consider a loophole, that is previewing tracks rather than donlwnloading them for keeps.

Can't see it staying up for long.

Hey, their first loophole lasted for over seven years.

GrooveShark is back
