Getting sick of using Limewire and even Limewire Pro nowadays as it seems all the new songs coming are difficult to download as they are either corrupted or don't work. Thank you stupid RIAA. :cool:

Anyways, besides using a torrent program what other apps have the same feel and look as limewire but are good just for downloading single songs (not entire albums)?

Soulseek (www.slsknet.org)

Never used Limewire, so I don't know the interface, but I've been using Soulseek now for about 5 years. IMHO, best P2P out there for music

Be careful with Kazaa, it is chock full of spyware. I don't know about lite, but I found 10 pieces of spyware with the full version.

Also used Soulseek in the past with excellent results. Checked with an old buddie the Major at Audiogalaxy and he claims Soulseek is better than ever. Just thought of pointing this out since some here have said Soulseek is hard to break into. FWIW Audiogalaxy, which was shut down was better than all the other P2Ps combined in its prime a few years back! Don't really DL much music lately, got all I ever wanted years ago before the music Nazis of the RIAA existed.....;)

Kazaa Lite K++ is the best version of Kazaa Lite and it's clean of all spyware.

Bit Torrent is the way to go now, besides using newsgroups.
On Bit Torrent you get the whole music albums plus many have the Album covers, backs & disc covers included in the file you DL.

Agreed, but someone out there has to be seeding what you want, and you have to be able to have access to the tracker (not all of the stuff is "freely" available). That's the beauty of P2P, is that you can passively share (leave a folder open and let people take) as opposed to actively share (wher eyou ahevt o make more of an effort to make your stuff available)

And yes, Soulseek is much better than it used to. There are some people who are particular about who they share with, but for the most part it's a great community. AND you can find people with full albums, cover art, etc. Actually, you find that more and more now (which may be a function of torrents)
