Download the Bebo songs in mp3 format


Bebo is a community driven website that, among other features, allows bands to have their special place on the web and offer songs and information to their audience. Clicking on the bands tab will load the central page for all bands at bebo. Once you click on a special band information about that band are displayed and a songs link is revealed.

Clicking that songs link leads to some songs that can be listened to on the web. The clever guys at tech-recipes have found a way to download those mp3 files directly to your hard drive. Once you are in the songs menu do the following: Right-click and view the source of the page. Search for mp3 and continue the search until you find a reference that looks like a complete url starting with http:// and ending with .mp3.

This is the complete filename for the first song that was displayed on the songs page. Copy that link and paste it into your web browser or automatic downloader. The song will download just fine and the only step left to do would be to change the name to the name of the band and song.

Continue the search to find additional links to all the other songs that might be in that list. Tech-Recipes suggested to create an account but I was not able to verify that this is indeed necessary. You can download the songs just fine without creating an account.

It could however be that you may listen to additional songs if you have an account at their website.

Update: The described method is not working anymore. I discovered another method which I described in the follow up article Download songs from Bebo.com
