hahahahahahaha your gonna cop a bashing buddy, round here we dont support that kinda stuff and if you do you keep it to yourself, youll learn :)

[kalem]

you'll wanna be looking for reasonably obscure tunes, because there is sooo many bullshit/trick songs on the P2P networks.

[ashhash]

All of the P2P is shit IMO, slow and full of files that are not what they seem.
Buy the CD cheaparse...

As if. I reackon there wouldn't be a single person out there that has paid for all the software on their computer...

Pssst, emule is pretty cool...

[tim_69]

yeah i will buy most cds but wat bout the 1s you cant find any where?

[Maffew]

Limewire...

[DiMmY]

DC++ is the ultimate downloading program :)

[roasted]

for those albums you cant find, mail-order.

EG: Portal-Seepia.

if you can find that at your shop, ill be mighty surprised. a bit of searching doesnt go astray.

Ahhh bring back the days of good old CuteMX - anyone else remember it? Must have been back in 98-99.. Fast speeds, no cues, GREAT useable software.. Too bad they got scared off when Napster got sued! They still make programes like CuteFTP but nothing as sweet as CuteMX.

Is DC++ the one that gives you access to the actual folders on other people hard drives? I remember a program like that but cant remember its name.. You just choose which folder/s to make public. Would be good for my "whole CD" MP3 sharing thing except that P2P is always so slow!

Yes that's it. It's Direct Connect (www.neo-modus.com). DC++ is an enhanced version that lets you join multiple hubs.

KILL THIS THREAD! KILL IT, KILL IT!

piss off matt, i know YOU download songs and crap.. who was it who gave me jib? A FAKE, DOWNLOADED JIB?

besides, what about the CDs that can't be found anywhere because they're out of print and they've all been bought (eg. Zebrahead - playmate of the year)

I completely agree.. Fair enough to disagree with file sharing in general - but to ask for a thread about it to be closed is pretty farked..

[roasted]

true, but,... quiet.

the only reason I said KILL IT!! is because all of these threads have been deleted before, and yer.

as for downloading stuff, true, that was hypocritical but SHUT UP!!! hehe.

besides, as much as I disagree with illegal file sharing, I still indulge in it occasionally...

[tim_69]

yeah i no at least every1 would have done it at least once

[DIRTSURFER666]

p2p is like drugs, make sure ur gettin it off a reliable source, oh and there both illegal

[konasaurus]

Know one has mentioned Soulseek .... the ultimate in finding your underground groove

[P.2_boy]

register on mp3 sound i think its free and u can get tons of songs or otherwise just download KAZZA

[CRS01]

Bearshare hasent been mentioned yet and isnt too bad...otherwise SoulSeek.

[naz]

Know one has mentioned Soulseek .... the ultimate in finding your underground groove

oh man its all i ever use the best program downloads are slower but fuck u can get anything and everything

[freeride_this]

Get limewire its the best.... (not like i use it or anything ;) )

[MUGEN]

Get limewire its the best.... (not like i use it or anything ;) )
I too agree with that, limewire owns, kicks i-mesh, kicks the HELL outta kazaa etc.

[scottmeister]

Kazaa Lite Revolution.

[Live2DieTrying]

get imesh for sure... little to no spyware, and everybody's always online so there's always (or nearly always) what you want...

[rtd]

Limewire...my reason being, It's the best I've tried. I've had Morpheus, and Kazza, and back in the dark ages I even had Napster and then Audiogalaxy!

[konasaurus]

Audiogalaxy was the shit I seriously loved that program ....

But know yeh it has to be soulseek

[stingray]

i'd forgotten about audiogalaxy!!! shivers that was ages ago.
funny thing that... i've followed exactly the same path to Limewire as you....

Most bands who aren't large enough to be signed to a major label and fill a stadium are actually in favour of file sharing/music downloading.
Royalties from record albums are an absolute pittance. by downloading, rather than buying a whole album you are probably ripping off the artist themselves around 12 cents. However the record company gets very shitty as they are the ones losing out big.
If an artist can fill out a bigger venue when they play because people downloaded thier music, they are probably going to wind up better off.

That said, I generally use music downloads to decide if I like a band enough to add them to my record collection.

Oh and not being able to find the CD is a lame ass excuse. If you can't try harder than HMV or Borders, you're not really trying.

[DEVLIN]

Try Ares and eDonkey. Can get pretty much anything on those two............so I have been told. Hehe

[CHEWY]

Shareaza is some good shit.

[Dicky]

Am I the first to mention WinMX?




...guess I am.

As if I'm going to spend days/weeks searching numerous shops for a $30 cd when I could download the songs in half an hour.

If an artist can fill out a bigger venue when they play because people downloaded thier music, they are probably going to wind up better off.That's how I see it, I've downloaded a fair bit of music (alot legally too, I might add) and anyone that's half decent, I've winded up either buying their cd, or seeing them when they tour. Record companies are trying their best to force an ancient business system on increasingly technologically aware/competent consumers. Having record companies getting in bed with authorities is a scary thought, but it's something that's happening more and more... bye bye privacy, hello copyright enforcement :eek:

[Maggot]

bearshare man!
search for it on www.downloads.com best one i've got my hands on yet, (after having winmx, kazaa, morpheus, audio galaxy)
