Download all of Jonathan Coulton’s free songs with ease

Jonathan Coulton, the Programmer turned Musician/Internet Superstar is freaking sweet and has several of his songs freely downloadable on his website. However, if you want to download them all it takes a lot of clicking (roughly 100 clicks actually) so I compiled a nice shell script that grabs all 35 free songs using curl.

Two of my favorite Jonathan Coulton songs, Baby Got Back(Sir Mix-a-Lot cover) and Code Monkey are not free to download however at $1 a piece for a DRM free MP3 or FLAC file I will be happily purchasing them from his website as soon as I finish this entry. The other song he made that I really like is the Portal song which plays during the credits after you beat the game.

Anyways grab the script and enjoy some free music. If you like the songs you can easily purchase the rest of his music from his website on a individual song or album basis.

    Thanks for the note Shauvik! He must have added them to the website since I wrote this. I updated the script and added those two songs.
