Question KaZaa,WinMX What's your fav..?

Sign in to disble this ad
I'm currently looking for a better music-downloading program. At the moment I am using KaZaa but honestly I'm really starting to dislike it, not to mention all the spyware... Anyone have any suggestions? because please if you do please lend a fellow music lover a hand!!

Unhappy

Seriously now, the reason I ask is firstly... I listen to Japanese Music... Secondly I would buy my favorite bands CD's but, I don't have a credit card so I can't order it online and I don't know anyone who has one... If I could buy the bands CD's I would and when I can eventhough I've burned a Cd with the songs I am still going to buy the Cd... Unless the artist is dead.. then only listening to the music is important because they don't see the money anyways so "sadly who cares" I respect musicians and I'd be choked if some punk riped my Cd... I pretty much don't even listen to english music at all... So...

Ares or LimeWire would be worth checking out.

Shareaza is what I'm using. It's Open Source and finds most of my hard to find files.

I'd go with Soulseek, lots of specific categories and chats about specific music. Never had any problems with any viruses either, Kazaa on the other hand...

bittorrent rules all. Bit tornado is a good client for it.

I love Limewire...

I download stuff - BUT - I still buy CDs - does that make me stuuupid?

No, actually I like paying money to the people I think deserve it - like any solo bassists and struggling, but very talented jazzers/musos/bands - but as for the corporate wh*res...
