Music Side Project 2.0

This is an updated version of the original musicsideproject.com by the legendary nostr:npub1yvgrrzf4dnmu30qfhw95x87ruu0g2kpv3a64h8hpvqsre8qeuspsgd6pv9. Its a simple web form that builds a podcasting 2.0 RSS feed for your music. site built and ran by nostr:npub177fz5zkm87jdmf0we2nz7mm7uc2e7l64uzqrv6rvdrsg8qkrg7yqx0aaq7
Fixed a bug last night that was causing the site to overwrite feeds that were hosted with me. I dont host any media but will host your RSS to help you on your self-hosting journey but ALWAYS SAVE A COPY OF THE XML FILE!! Luckily the user that was affected had a copy saved so we were able to restore it without any issue. To help prevent me messing up people's feeds in the future I now save a copy of the xml file that's hosted with me but that's more for me to be able to fix these problems myself and as a backup since this site is very new still.
MSP 2.0 now lets you add your npub to your RSS feed via the <podcast:txt> tag. This tag allows you to add info to a RSS feed that is either for reference or if something doesn't have a formal tag. Looks like this in my feeds. <podcast:txt purpose="npub">npub177fz5zkm87jdmf0we2nz7mm7uc2e7l64uzqrv6rvdrsg8qkrg7yqx0aaq7</podcast:txt> What the point? I dont know yet but its something I wanted to try. Its been added to this test feed of mine.
We need to build the tools before we can make them easier but easier usually means giving up some control. My goal is to make the best RSS music feed generator for people to use while trying out some other ideas along the way. We're going to break a lot of stuff along the way but that's half the fun and this stuff doesn't build itself. Thank you to the few artists making feeds and helping me test. o7
Fixed a bug in the Publisher Feeds that was causing some apps to not pick them up. You can also make video RSS feeds now that are basically the same as a music feed but its marked as video in the feed and the UI is tuned for it. This is my test Publisher Feed - and a test Video Feed - image
Reminder to ALWAYS save your .xml file for your RSS feeds. I'm doing a lot of testing that requires me to delete my test feeds from the MSP hosted but the import .xml always brings your stuff back because that the source of trust for all of the RSS stuff.
