    I'm shocked people even bother to use LimeWire still. Torrents are not a bad suggestion, but I'm hooked on Usenet.

    Find more stuff easier, really fast direct downloads and no uploading required. Mmm, life is good.

    4shared.com is really good for music. Just search what you want.

    I didn't even know Limewire was still around. I use uTorrent - it's the best program I've ever used.

    I figured Limewire was shutdown years ago. I used to use it for MP3s until they completely changed the look and killed the ability to search by artist, title, etc, because at that point every damn result you got almost was fake.

    Luckily that was about the time I finally switched from dialup to broadband so I just moved on to stealing all my music through torrents like the rest of the world.

    Now that I think about it, I used Limewire for about five minutes in 2004 before going "Let's see what this torrenting thing is about" and never looked back.

    Your statement implied all record companies are automatons that treat their musicians badly (which is nonsense). Maybe that wasn't your intention at all though.

    Using implications to support your statement is kinda silly. No, not all record companies treat their artists badly, but the majority of them do not treat them as commodities and usually screw them over after a certain point. I do not see how this is nonsense, as this has come from the typed and spoken words of several musicians.

    Download torrent program (mentioned), find torrent site (also mentioned), download torrent (basic knowledge), click file after download is finished (basic knowledge), wait for torrent to finish, enjoy torrent.
