Jephree · 01-15-2004, 10:26 PM

Just curious, on what everyone's using thesedays. I'm currently using SoulSeek and am pretty happy with it. How about ya'll?

quadro2000 · 01-16-2004, 08:54 AM

Hahah, nobody wants to respond because they don't want the RIAA to catch them.

I have a Mac and use Poisoned, but rarely.

bltzkriegmcanon · 01-16-2004, 11:01 AM

i'm on bittorrent, occasionally Kazaalite

actionoreos · 01-16-2004, 12:20 PM

torrent has been good to me but i haven't really had the time to spend downloading anything lately and not to mention i haven't really felt like downloading stuff (lost interest i guess).

omega2K4 · 01-16-2004, 12:30 PM

WinMX for music, BitTorrent for *coughsoftwarecough*.

anleja · 01-16-2004, 01:28 PM

I've used Soulseek for about a week, it seems to work okay, or at least better than Kazaa Lite and eDonkey.

glytch · 01-16-2004, 01:46 PM

I'm using BitTorrent and eMule plus. Both are slow, but I love them because I've yet to get a bad file from either.

bonehed1 · 01-16-2004, 02:25 PM

I use Shareaza....works well with Torrents

onodrim · 01-16-2004, 02:34 PM

Kazaalite for me, but only becase the connection at my school is crap, so nothing else works. If I had a functioning connection, I prefer WinMX, and BitTorrent is also great.

SecretMethod70 · 01-16-2004, 02:48 PM

bittorrent and the eDonkey network

rockzilla · 01-16-2004, 04:26 PM

I like soulseek. But nothing has worked nearly as well for me as the original Napster. I still remember spending 9 hours straight getting music one night when I heard the supreme court was shutting it down the next day, turns out the rumours were untrue, but at least I had a couple hundred songs to listen to.

FoolThemAll · 01-16-2004, 04:39 PM

Soulseek. Kazaalite doesn't seem to work from within my college's network.

sailor · 01-16-2004, 08:23 PM

Usenet. Full albums, great quality.

mrbuck12000 · 01-16-2004, 08:59 PM

kazaa lite seems to be a weener for me. But i have gotten into bit torrents b4 as well. I recently got into streamripper and record the radio station i listen on the net.

mr b

Jesus Pimp · 01-16-2004, 09:28 PM

I use Soul Seek and Bit Torrent. Soul Seek can be slow at time but Bit Torrent is helluva fast

Mantus · 01-16-2004, 10:00 PM

Still use kazaa lite.

Jephree · 01-17-2004, 12:41 AM

Still using SoulSeek, but took some of the suggestions and ran with Bittorrent. Anyone suggestions for a rookie Bittorrent user?

R-Dubb604 · 01-17-2004, 04:47 PM

direct connect and mirc, both are virus/spyware free they are the best in my opinion

milkyp · 01-17-2004, 07:09 PM

Im on Soulseek...seems to be the only place where you can be sure that you are getting the right thing. Kazaa and WinMX is full of fake files and such...

forseti-6 · 01-17-2004, 07:34 PM

I used to use Kazaa lite, but ever since I signed up for Rhapsody, I don't really use it anymore. It seems that since I have most of the music I want at my fingertips without having to wait to download it, I don't need to pirate anymore

rev_skarekroe · 01-19-2004, 12:22 PM

SoulSeek. I've recently downloaded every unreleased or out of print song by both Ministry and White Zombie with very little trouble. It's THE program to use if you're looking for obscurities and rarities, which is really all I need filesharing for anyway.

da^cheat · 01-19-2004, 07:48 PM

i just use kazaa since i dont know how to use soulseek and bit torrent ... ect..

Amen. Heck, if I wouldn't have messed up my file of Napster somehow, I'd still use it for my main music-player, too!

Oh, and I use Kazaa, but with everyone saying good things about SoulSeek, I'm gonna have to check that out real soon.

Soulseek is no harder to use than Kazaa....

ToolBag · 01-20-2004, 08:15 PM

For underground stuff, Soulseek! then every now and then Ill hop on Kazaa lite++, I have been thinking about getting on Rhapsody. Id feel better about it when I download from smaller bands.

h2ogo69 · 01-21-2004, 02:24 PM

...anything i can get my hands o

wrongfullyaccuzd · 01-21-2004, 11:14 PM

KazaaLite...it's all I use now. I used to use SoulSeek and when I did it was awesome. I don't anymore because...just because one filesharing program is enough I guess.

Vales419 · 01-23-2004, 03:34 PM

Using MIRC is a great place to start for full albums. As for individual songs, I use WinMX.

V.

Jephree · 01-24-2004, 01:19 PM

Does MIRC work like Bittorrent? Another Q: I subscribed to Bittorrent and would like to unsubscribe. I keep getting bombarded with member emails and it's a little frustrating. I sent an email to bittorrent to unsubscribe me and nothing has happened. Any suggestions?

MSD · 01-24-2004, 05:23 PM

Never underestimate the power of a GNUtella client in ultrapeer mode. 800 connections, half of them to other ultrapeers with that many connections, I can get myself up to 30k + reachable nodes in half an hour.

BuddyHawks · 01-24-2004, 05:27 PM

Supernova - - > BitTorrent

vapusforever · 01-24-2004, 07:57 PM

in on Kazaalite 24/7 and occasionally WinMX. KaZAA FOREVER!!!!! I miss the old napster... the new one sucks

CheeseButtons · 01-25-2004, 07:27 PM

Yabbo · 01-29-2004, 01:43 PM

Soulseek. Makes me wonder why I spent so many wasted days with Kazaa Lite

shimmy1 · 01-29-2004, 01:51 PM

I used to use Soulseek, but couldn't find everything I wanted. Now that Kazaa lite is more or less dead, I'm going back to it.

Grondar · 01-29-2004, 02:06 PM

mIRC + IRCSpy is all I need.

CheeseButtons · 01-29-2004, 09:53 PM

Occasionally i'll see what Kazaa has to offer

meembo · 01-31-2004, 02:30 PM

DirectConnect is the way to go, but you have to find a hub like this and get going. Hubs use standards and user/passwords to control quality and access, and to help protect privacy

goateebird · 01-31-2004, 02:37 PM

Soulseek and Bittorrent

I'm still looking for sites with lots of torrents though. I saw suprnova.org and novasearch.net, anything else?

Jephree · 01-31-2004, 03:34 PM

Myself,...? Back to SoulSeek only. My mailbox was filling to quickly w/ Bittorrent
