			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Up until a few days ago, <a href="http://www.nectarine.fr">nectarine.fr</a> streamed demoscene songs (chiptunes: S3M, IT, MOD, etc.) to the world for free.  It was driven by undoubtedly the largest database of demoscene music in existence &#8211; this database was the result of countless numbers of people contributing, voting for their favorite songs, etc.</p>
<p>Some stupid script kiddie hacked the site and destroyed the database.  No viable backups exist (before you cast stones, when was the last time you backed up?), and now the world is faced with two options &#8211; attempt restoration of the deleted files off the hard drive, OR lose this piece of history forever.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t usually trumpet causes, especially internet ones, but demoscene music was a big part of my childhood, and this site brought back tons of good memories.  So help save it by throwing in a few bucks.  Here&#8217;s the link:</p>
<p>[Update: I took out the donate button, it's no longer needed.  The money was raised, and the drives are getting repaired!]</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the forum with more info:<br />
