Ultra Music Festival website (unintentionally) offering free MP3 downloads

    Recently I found that my 80GB iPod Video just wasn’t big enough for me after all. But if you have spare space on your iPod and you’re looking for some badass beats to fill that void, you came to the right place. The home page for this year’s Ultra Music Festival is inadvertently offering nearly 50 free MP3 downloads for those technically inclined enough to “hack” their embedded streaming music player.

    Ultra Music Festival 11, which by the way is being held March 27 and 28 in Bicentennial Park in Miami, FL, is looking to be one of the most amazing line-ups yet, with acts such as Tiesto, Paul Van Dyk, Carl Cox, Infected Mushroom, all headlined by Prodigy. If you’re going, see you there.

    But if you can’t make it this year, or if you just came for the free MP3 downloads, go to town. In case you’re wondering how we figured out these songs could be downloaded, check out this tutorial on hacking streaming Flash media. Get ’em while they’re hot!

    Note to RIAA thugs: Punq.org in no way is hosting or distributing these MP3 files. All responsibility for making these files available is solely on the administrators of “Ultramusicfestival.com”, where these files are hosted and streamed freely via the publicly accessible URLs listed above.

    1. Note: all these mp3 files are just 56kbit.

    2. Thanks for finding this out and sharing! 56 kbps is disappointing, but overall just as good as many streaming radio stations.
