Hello. I am new to this site. I am looking to be able to set up a live downloadable feed that drops data into a csv or something similar and includes all the music metadata, particularly artist, album, genre, record label.
Any recommendations? I am not super technically savvy so I would probably need step by step specifics.
Thanks!
Do you mean all the metadata? For all artists? If so, I doubt it’d even open as a CSV file, it’d be too big.
I am looking to get all the metadata. If not CSV, what would you recommend?
There are two ways to get the MB data: data dumps and live data feed (which requires an access token).
There’s documentation for setting up your own MB server but for specialized needs (like dumping part of the data into files) you probably need to come up with your own solutions.
