- robg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Yeah i don't get it. I hope someone fires up a story here soon so we can find out what happened. I didn't hear that the site had been purchased.
Someone posted a while back about doing in depth mp3 searches using google, I'll have to dig that up. Wasn't that all Singingfish did - was just in depth specified file searches of the internet? - Frankacne, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I think it was The Best search engine, for audio and video, AOL Video is total crap and full of crap too. All they are interested in is money, they know the price of everything and the value of nothing. Any search engine that finds you unusual, non commercial or free music is probably obscene in their eyes. As an AOL customer, you can imagine how i feel about the bastards now.
- binky79, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2the wikipedia says they were purchased by AOL in 2003, but hasn't been updated about the shutdown. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singingfish
- coxon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2That was a great site.
- binky79, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I LOVED this resource. ***** took it away. Do they realize that this is why people hate them? I wonder if the blog search functionality still works in songbird (i was under the impression it was powered by singingfish)?
- binky79, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1this kind of response may be indicative of what happened to singingfish.com.
- thesixthdesign, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1singingfish was purchased by aol quite a few years ago.
although stupid freaking [greedy] aol recently just ***** destroyed a totally (once) great kick-ass site - ThreeDee912, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1The link is dead :(
- drey214, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1this link still works over here -----> http://singingfish.com/sfw/home.jsp
...notice if you look at the bottom of the page, the copyright date says "1999-2006".. i guess for 2007 they're gonna flush singingfish down the toilet.... feces on aol.. feces! - ThreeDee912, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Same company who killed Netscape... Go Firefox!
- ThreeDee912, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Darn. I wanted to be the first one to put this on Digg, but my local ISP crapped out on me (nothing else is available in the middle of nowhere...).
Whatever. Doesn't really matter.
Appears that the AOL search page has a 'new' music search feature: http://search.aol.com/aolcom/audiohome
Or you could use the link drey214 gave us, before AOL deletes it... - RedmanOki1990, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0hey guys, im kinda new here but i really liked singingfish. i went there all the time. but i recently came across a site that is almost as good. its called:
www.seekasong.com - friktionn, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0AOL is lame. Big fat corporate monster consuming everything it can get away with.

:< - Frankacne, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Re Singing Fish, Some good news folks, maybe our complaints and nagging is paying off. AOL have updated their search for audio and video and seem to have incorporated the Singing Fish into it at last. Now you can also search for Real Audio and Streams and its begun to find some of the things i thought were lost for ever. Its still in Beta so if you want to have the site incorporate the best features which the Fish had, then get emailing them, the address is on the page. I for one wish to see more searches for Quick Time as well and i would like to see the Audio / Video be a choice of Either, Or, or both. It is however better than it looks so check it out. You can get the new site here at this url...... http://search.aol.co.uk/audio
- DizzyDet, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0damn AOL... they never have any good music. their "rock" section is full of nickleback and good Charlot and all the bands are "big". all they have is rap. they killed one of the best sites ever made!!
- franky76, on 09/24/2008, -0/+0Now you can also search for Real Audio and Streams and its begun to find some of the things i thought were lost for ever. Its still in Beta so if you want to have the site incorporate the best features which the Fish had, then get emailing them

- jester55, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1you can still search singingfish, well sort of. all you have to do is go to dogpile.com and search audio. then just look for the results that say "found on singingfish".

- BontaKun117, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0*"Taps" playing in background * Farewell, singingfish. You shall be sorely missed. It seems just yesterday I was using you to listen to German metal in English II, and now you are gone. It is with a heavy heart that I say that on this day, I have lost a friend and made an enemy.
AOL, your transgressions offend all who walk the path. The will of the Prophets-nay, the Forerunners themselves-shall rain down upon you. The history of singingfish.com shall be written in your electronic blood. - dansko, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0AOl sucks big time
http://www.born-shoes.org - delobar43, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Oops, sorry I posted the wrong link, here is the one that explains what happened

- whitesnow158, on 10/24/2007, -0/+0No doubt as a reaction to all the bad press he's been giving record labels, Universal/Interscope has relieved Trent Reznor of his contractual duties.
