MP3Spy Beta released

The same people who unleashed GameSpy have schemed up a new goodie for people looking for fun stuff on the net, MP3Spy. Like GameSpy, MP3Spy is a server browser.

MP3Spy Beta has a new file out today, and PC gamers with itchy download fingers have something else to grab. The same people who unleashed GameSpy have schemed up a new goodie for people looking for fun stuff on the net, MP3Spy. Like GameSpy, MP3Spy is a server browser. Instead of finding the best game servers, though, MP3Spy hunts down Winamp SHOUTcast servers. That means you can stream .MP3 files right to your desktop and listen to music and stuff from all over the net.

That is the bargain we keep making with PC gaming: more patches, more drivers, more tools, and hopefully a better game on the other side. Sometimes it fixes everything. Sometimes it just gives us a new version number to complain about.
