In order to keep adding tons of new tracks to Grooveshark, we’re going to be making some optimizations tonight between 12 AM and 4 AM EST. Things probably won’t go hay-wire, but we’re finding it’s often harder to predict problems than you expect!
A small number of songs (and images) may be offline for a bit (between 12 AM and 4 AM EST), but overall you probably won’t notice any difference.

Just a quick update:
In an effort to sort out all the madness from earlier today, we’re going to be making some small, helpful changes to some business on the backend tonight. Though caching is temporarily disabled, we do expect that some images within Grooveshark may be displayed improperly between 11 PM and 6 AM (EST) tonight.
Hopefully everything will be back to normal (well, as normal as things get around here) by morning.
We’ll be donning our hard-hats and making some updates to some (pretty important) parts of the Grooveshark Torture Apparatus database tonight between 11 PM and 6 AM. After the updates, you should see improvements to load times while navigating through Grooveshark–which is good. During 11 and 6, however, we’ll have to take streaming offline, so songs won’t be available for listening–which is bad.
We’re working as hard as we can to get everything on Grooveshark speedy, stable, and stupendously useful, but if you ever have any requests or notice something isn’t working for you, please please please let us know.
