Hello.  The Murfie website says they have ceased operations.  As of today, my collection is still streaming but I cannot reach anyone there.  I have about 600 discs uploaded as FLAC files there and am very concerned to be able to retrieve those in tact.

Anyone else use Murfie or any suggestions?

Thank you,

CSP2019:

Curious how you downloaded every album you had purchased in FLAC?  Was this done via Murfie streaming?

 

Thank you


My CDs still play off the app on my phone and to a Bluetooth speaker. Is there a way to get them from the app to another Cloud-based service or do I need the physical CDs? 
 

Thx in advance and I feel your pain. I’m in the “700 Club” with another 25 just shipped. 


I was a legacy member for several years. When earlier this year my membership failed to renew, I contacted customer support in vain. I sent several emails and even made phone calls. No one ever replied to the emails (a first) and, when calling during normal business hours, I only received an automated voice response, never connecting with a live person (also a first). I then contacted the president of the company. He made no replies either. 

Concerned and frustrated, I downloaded every album I had purchased in Flac, which took a while, and then posted a negative comment on the Murfie Facebook page. At last I connected with a representative who saw the post. I called him and determined during that conversation, and sensing trouble with the company, to have my collection shipped back to me. They fulfilled my request and I obtained my physical collection about a month later. He even said during our talk he was in the middle of dozens of return requests, which I knew was the kiss of death. 

I had no idea there were so many Murfie supporters here. Otherwise I would have issued a warning. I think all of you will receive your collections in time, but I am very sorry for your hassles. I thought it was a great service until the end.  


I hope so, I look like crazy in FLAC these tracks, which I was about to buy in Murfie, if someone sells them please contact me:

Thanks to all for your suggestions.


For those that srill have the disks, there are quite a few services that will rip collections and immediately return the CDs.

But it doesn't take long to rip a few CDs, and you can do other stuff while it's chuntering away. Ten or 15 disks a week would sort the collections mentioned on this thread within a year. 

A subscription to a streaming service for a few months would tide you over short term.

Just a suggestion.
