A Cool linux script that gets top 100 songs
I thought maybe shed some light on a Linux script that I have made in the past semester of College. Since there was a lot of debate about whether or not Linux will prevail.
In this script, the general moral is that it will download the top songs on the billboard 100 and the top 100 songs on UK top chart, then it will save it to a temp file so the sed editor can take out the html tags.

I'd want to use this if I was sitting in front of a Linux machine right now. Unfortunately, I'm using Windows 10 (ugh).
One question though: How could I adapt this to get the top 100 songs in the US? I'm kind of a noob at Linux programming.
Thanks,
This grabs the Top 100 songs in the US from Billboard.com.
