Hello. My TODO list got low enough, to look into this a little bit. By default, I have the too new 3.1 version of BeautifulSoup (shortened to BS for this note). I also downloaded BS-3.0.7a and BS-3.0.8.
I have a "few" songs to download (364884). I tried lastscrape as written with 3.0.8, and it died after a while. Thinking maybe the time between pages was too short, I edited lastscrape to use a 20 second pause instead of a 1 second pause. Both 3.0.8 and 3.0.7a versions of BS still cause crashing. I can see that at some point, a download of my data from Last.fm is probably going to take a day or more. Then I will have the pleasure of getting rid of duplicates. But, are there things a person can do to get over humps in the download? I'm not really a python person, I prefer perl. But I can probably adjust the python to do what is needed too. Thanks, Gord
