This site is no longer up updated because the owners no longer have the time etc.

Would it be worth trying to obtain it and keep it updated ourselves ?

I used to used the site quite a lot when I was building my music library.

I'd be willing to take over the domain and hosting, but it would take time (from others) keeping it up-to-date...

The biggest issue is bringing it up to date.

It's been lacking updates for many, many years now.

A shame, as it's an incredible resource - and I'm not sure of another like it.

I found this ages ago & still use it quite a lot. It's generally right up to date too. Well, was last time I checked.

I've just used it to find what song that was number one when I was born and it's not even listed?

I think it's far too much upkeep for something that 0.00001% of the DJ world will use let alone anyone else.

It was a big resource when I was working in radio. Personally, I hated it as I thought it was a crutch, but I guess was useful when you're being lazy with your show prep.

I'd imagine everyone would just to google or wiki now for that sort of info?

I dunno. I've found it invaluable as a chronological database in the past. If Marc has the space to host it I think it could be a great addition to the forum, even in it's current state without the more recent updates.

Space isn't an issue, depends more on the technology used. If anyone is in contact with the people who run it, let them know ;)

If it's a really good source, then try to save it if you have the time and resources.
