Who on here downloads music?

Anonymous · Post by **Anonymous** » Wed Dec 15, 2004 4:14 pm

So i have been trying to find a good site to download music but the more i search the more undecided i get. I figured i would just ask around and then come to a decision. The one i am leaning towards right now is MSN.
My Webpage
They've got this contest going where you can win a laptop, free downloads etc. you get the point. Now i just dont know what to go with. Can i get some advice

thanks

P2P in general sucks lately because of terrorists. (RIAA) But I use shareaza for downloading and it's one of the best I've tried so far and it has no spyware or other crap like that.

Emule is spyware free too and has lots of content. Lack of speed though.

kAzAa lite is my pirate ship of choice

i dont use it to offen for music tho n when i do its normally just for a single but it works great for finding anime if you let it search n set the accelerator to scan the first 3 downloads

spyware is no biggie here cuz ad-aware will remove it ... i think its gator lol
i dont think i got spyware with it last time i downloaded kAzAa cuz ad-aware didnt find gator

but msn is a good site if you prefer a site to download (i know another site but i forget the name ..will post when i find it again)

Gator is now claria they switched names since they were tired of people saying it's spyware. I'm suprised they did not try to sue me yet. I'm waiting for that moment since lawsuit letters are fun to read.

Kazaa lite has no spyware so if that's what you're using,then you're good. normal kazaa has cydoor which is spyware.

E-mule is good. Overnet and edonkey 2000 are popular. But then again, every p2p network is slow because of the RIAA and because of the fact that they're not stored on the server anymore, now they are stored on other user's computers who never seem to be online. Napster screwed the pooch on that one.

ya i use kAzAa lite (k-lite++) n like i said lol i dont download much music but anime on kAzAa really seems to move at a fair speed like i can start 10 downloads n start watching after the first download is half done without missing a beat lol

i assume music will be slower cuz the RIAA is attacking music and not fan subbed anime

Yeah but they impact the whole network with their viruses and DoS stuff. Not sure if they're still pounding at this moment though but I would not be suprised.

I use HTTP to get my mp3s, as I'm behind a router and P2P has trouble with it. When, on the rare occasion, the site I use doesn't have a song I want, I use iMesh lite or Xolox
