LinkShare Flex Links are being used in a neat way by Beatport, a digital music store with DJ-quality club music, who is enabling affiliates to put music their sites.

The Denver-based company has developed a widget that’s embedded with via LinkShare’s Flex Link technology.

Affiliates can post the widgets on their website, blog, and social network profiles. The widget can hold up to 100 tracks from Beatport’s library of independent labels.

    What’s so cool about it? Give me a real API. Why place an imaginary limit like 100 on me?

    I think it is good experience for the end user.

    I can’t speak to reasons for limits, but would presume there was testing behind it.
