...and I thought it would be the other way around. Oh well. 
DDRUK used to be my main provider back then it was up... but now. Bleh. It's up now, but it's not like they have alot of downloads. :/
The music itself is why I got into it, blame 321 stars.  |

I think it was something to do with the original downloads, IE people producing stepfiles for popular songs. I think somebody twigged that you can download music for free from their servers if you discard the game information  |

I don't think it was Konami either, and yea I said UK was on their way to getting DLs back up. :\
I think it was something else, but like I said, not a clue as to why. I mean seriously...all these sites selectively went down at the same time (in the course of about a week or two). |

Actually, DDRUK is working on getting their downloads back up, but there's something that's holding them up.
On their page:
*DDR:UK's shop finally goes online! Products will shortly be appearing
*Downloads will return, currently working on uploading new files to the servers (sorry for the delay!)
*Articles and FAQs section revamped, with new articles on their way
I'd say they had a general server wipe out, as Konami doesn't seem too big on taking down sites hosting DDR related emulation files (and that makes sense, sense each mp3 is copyright to their respected authors, so Konami could take down the .sm or .dwi files, but can't do jack about the mp3's, cept for their Konami originals, of course). |

Yea, DDRNE went down earlier this year right around the time DDRUK went under. Like I said, I'm not sure what happened but I have a feeling someone requested the sites to be shut down. Since then I really haven't found much else other than Havoks' site. |

Another site I used to use is www.ddramerica.com/torrents
But that's down now...
DJ Bad used to be the BEST place but that's also down. Shame.
Yep, looks like P2P and torrents are tghe best ways to go about it. |

DDRUK has been dead for months. It was resurrected a few days ago, so I wouldn't try looking for DLs there just yet. Havoks probably has what you're looking for and I doubt very seriously you find much else on P2P...just for the sheer fact that there was a mass clean out of SMs/DWIs over the past few months (I'm still not sure what happened here).
OSTs are another way to go, like DD said, you could probably find the MP3s themselves on file-sharing or looking around for them on a BT site. I doubt you find SMs/DWIs that route, but you might be lucky. |

DDRUK's downloads are currently on hold for some reason, but should be back soon. You can also go to bemanistyle (www.bemanistyle.com) to find some remixes of DDR songs (personal and offical), though it requires registation, but worth it if you have a thing for Max 300 remixes and Paranoia remixes.
You can also find original sound tracks for every arcade DDR release all over the web. They usually run around $25, but you get a more than a handful of songs on each OST. |

DDRUK has every mix to my knowledge...I've been using them and they work quite lovely. |

Also, you might want to try to do a google search, or use a P2P service to get the songs that way. |

Is there a site anywhere that lets me download songs from this game? I've searched almost everywhere now |
