From what I hear among the audiophiles, SoulSeek is where its happening. Down with the kids. In da area etc.

 

[-Ultimate]

Soulseek for whole albums as well as any music thats not mainstream.

 

[kameleon]

winmx
imesh
morpheus2.0

i must point out that copying copyrighted material is illegal

You do realise the more you spam soulseek around the more idiots sharing now 100! et al will multiply until its shut down?

 

[kameleon]

i wasnt spamming it but sureley the more the merrier


/me peeks into .cages shared folder

 

[old.TUG]

Well i have lotsa shite to share so tis fair play.

Nice one ladies, I'll get soulseek now

Soulseek seems to be fairly limited in its range of music, in my experience.

I use Audiognome most of the time for full albums, given that it lets you list by user/conn speed/bit rate etc. Just type in the name of an album, filter by user name, then by bit rate, go to the top and start downloading.

Filesharing programs are utter shite for finding music these days: your best bet is to find some good mp3 boards which have many private FTP servers filled brimming with good music.

can you give us an example?

 

[Wazzerphuk]

I can, but it's recommendations only - so there's nothing you can actually do there (ie view the boards, get ftp info).





They like people that give back.

So how do you get recommended?

 

[Wazzerphuk]

By knowing someone that visits the boards, and actively contributes to them.
