haha, sorry. How about genre, rating, title, number of downloads, module ID#, file name?

CSV would be preferred; don't know if there is any good reason to dump it since I have already built the lookup table from song file name -> song info from the HTML. Unless it contains information about songs that have been removed from the site (there are a couple hundred songs, 150 or so, that the importer did not find info for, so I'm assuming those songs were removed from the site but still exist in the snapshot torrent. Of course it could be that my HTML parse did not complete all the way...) If you want to , you can e-mail me the CSV (asslowashell [at] gmail dot com)

Ah, haha I see. Sorry about that. I did get a temporary ban at one point, thats when i slowed down 
. Hopefully I didn't cause too much of a burden; at least i was going letter by letter 100 modules per page scraping instead of song by song for 120,000 + modules 
Haha, yeah I didn't think of just asking for the data. A SQL dump or something of the sort would have been much nicer to work with than scraping HTML and wouldn't have put load on the server. Lesson learned.
PS: People are crazy. How in the world can people complain about a torrent snapshot? Its amazing that you even considered rolling one in the first place! The torrent pack + the little "collection maker" app I slapped together are perfect for me because I like to listen to mods at work but browsing the site and looking for more good ones at work is no good (I should be working!). This allows me to bring the mods on an external and right click the Demo Style genre songs (for example) and Play All in Winamp (using the bass.dll plugin of course). Thank you for rolling the torrent snapshot(s) and I hope more people than just me will benefit from the app.

Its all in a file included with the app. Basically it was scraped from the site over the course of a couple days. I did it that way so that each person using it wouldn't be hammering the site. 
The main downside is that its also a snapshot
EDIT: and I forgot to put in a required dependency in the zip, so i added it just now and made it slightly more user friendly by saying "Complete press any key to quit" instead of just making the window disappear. This way if there are errors or problems they can actually be reported

Software Showcase / Python App - Song "Sorter"
« on: November 09, 2007, 08:50:55 »
I have made a simple app that makes a "sorted" "collection" of any mod files you want it to sort. Any mod file or zip of a mod file or group zip of a mod file from the 2007 mod archive torrent will be imported correctly. Source code is included.
The files are renamed to a more descriptive format:
for example:
from sm-unbreakable.it
to 7.00 sm-unbreakable.it (Unbreakable Barrier) ID158134 Hits-53
It organizes the files in the following format:
if the song has a rating:
rated\genre\rating (one of bad, good, great, zomg)\descriptive file name
if the song does not have a rating:
unrated\(genre)\popularity (one of obscure, seldom seen, known, popular, hit, mega-hit)\descriptive file name
How to use:
-Make sure python interpreter is installed (http://www.python.org/download/). for those that dont know what it is its a multiplatform interpreter for the python programming language. kind of like java, but without aids
-Download program and extract somewhere http://rapidshare.com/files/68466783/ModuleImportFixed.zip.html
-Put mod files into the import folder
-Run ModImport.py
-Output will go to the collection folder
Notes:
The modules you put in the import folder need to be unmodified names of the original file you downloaded from this website (modarchive) for the songs to be properly organized. They can also be zipped, but if they are zipped the zip file name should be the original file name of the module with a .zip on the end just as they are downloaded from modarchive. You can also import zips of these zipped files.
IMPORTANT! When the songs are imported to the collection folder, the original named songs in the import folder are moved/deleted and end up in the collection folder with the transformed file name. if you want to maintain the original file please perform the import on copies of the files and not the originals.
If there are any problems let me know, also if anyone finds it useful let me know.
EDIT: haha i after posting this i saw the mod library thing XD. Mine has a slightly different goal, the main goal was to take the 120,000 module 2007 torrent pack and to put the files into a more usable structure for exploring and finding new songs you may like. Module Database seems to be more of a library for mod song you already know you like
EDIT2: I forgot to include the BeautifulSoup.py file in the package, so i repackaged it.
