iTunes Festival - Download recordings

gistfile1.md

1. Get your cookie. Either proxy your iPhone/iPod/iPad and record the cookie using the proxy server of your choice or capture the request using your AP with Wireshark or similar

2. Make sure you have a cookie like token=expires=1409714101~access=/auth/*~md5=2d4466c1...

3. Find the day of the artist you want to load (e.g. 01, 02, 10, 25) Find the artist on iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/*deadmau5*/id*78011850* and take its ID and its name. Add an underscore between these two. (e.g. 78011850_deadmau5)

4. Launch the script: sh itunes-festival.sh cookie day id_artist

   sh itunes-festival.sh "token=expires=1409714101~access=/auth/*~md5=2d4466c1" 01 78011850_deadmau5

5. Have fun.

itunes-festival.sh

#!/bin/bash
cookie=$1
day=$2
artist=$3

mkdir -p $artist
cd $artist

index=$(curl -s -b "$cookie" http://streaming.itunesfestival.com/auth/eu1/vod/201409$day/v1/${artist}_desktop_vod.m3u8 | tail -n1)
files=$(curl -s -b "token=expires=1409714101~access=/auth/*~md5=2d4466c113b2eb5f10b0ea4ab55df617" http://streaming.itunesfestival.com/auth/eu1/vod/201409$day/v1/$index)
 
for i in $files; do
  if [[ "$i" =~ ".ts" ]]; then
    curl -b "$cookie" http://streaming.itunesfestival.com/auth/eu1/vod/201409$day/v1/8500_256/$i > $i
  fi
done
 
cat * > $artist.ts
mv $artist.ts ../
cd ..
rm -r $artist

Ok, call me an idiot but I have wireshark and I've looked at all kinds of stuff and still no idea how to get the cookie. Any idea how long these videos stay available? I'm interested in the one from tonight.

ditto on that, anyone know a nice tutorial, trying to grab a cookie off networked iPad I can see the captured packets but other than that no idea where i should be looking for for cookies!?

Thanks in advance

** EDIT ** I DID GET IT WORKING, READ THROUGH THIS COMMENT

As soon as I posted that, I found it. Ugh. Does this take a long time to download? Took me some time to get the exact band name right, and I got one strange error but it's downloading something.

Edit - on a laptop I found it using wireshark, filtered http, capture when starting the stream through itunes, then looked at the GET.

The problem I have is that the final video doesn't seem to be the whole thing or VLC isn't handling it well. It is 4GB but it starts somewhere in the middle and may even be out of order. Not sure, still working on it. I also got an error at the start, but then it started downloading:

: No such file or directory 10: 8500_256/538811449_5secondsofsummer_vod.m3u8
: command not foundsh: line 12: #EXTM3U

Any thoughts? I may re-download but not remove the files after it does the cat command in the shell script

BTW, this is really awesome that you figured this all out! Thank you!

One more Edit: That error seemed to be meaningless. But the " cat * > $artist.ts" in the script only works if there are less than 10 songs, otherwise it is in the wrong order. I removed the "rm *" from the script and kept the .ts? files and then wrote a stupid script that loops through based on song number and appends to the output file, like this:

for i in ls *song1_*
do
cat $i >> $myout
done

for i in ls *song2_*
do
cat $i >> $myout
done

(oh and for 5 seconds of summer, the id and band name is 538811449_5secondsofsummer)

I tried putting inside of a loop and building the ls command with variables, but inside the backquotes I don't think you can use variables. Anyhow, I have it working and this was the most awesome information, Thank you so much!

Hi guys, complete novice here so apologies...

Can someone give me a step by step approach to doing this. I have Wireshark and can locate the cookie for the Kasabian gig last night, but anything after that I have no idea.

How do I write a script?
Is it PC-based (I have a Win7 machine and a Macbook Pro...)

I'd be eternally grateful if someone could give me a beginner's guide :)

Thanks in advance...

@titania424 I've created this one for me, because I've the same problem of wrong order in the final output when I've tried to adapt the original script with 2014 festival.
