The ultimate P2P server?

[Shoden]

I use Limewire, i've had no problems with it, not one spot of adware or spyware, no viruses, low RAM usage and faster than kazaa.


If you want liable but slow and hard to get files try Winmx.

[Dreddz]

spyware and adware. slows down the comp massively. is actually illegal. alot of people mistitle things, chance of infection, can cause firewall problems.

It's not illegal to share files with people. A lot of it may be unsigned artists. What if we own the albums?

Didn't we just get finished establishing that Soulseek was devoid of all those problems?

I got my BIOS file from there. So it is illegal.....

[ZeZipster]

Okay it can be illegal. My point was that it isn't always illegal.

[Shoden]

I don't give a toot if it's illegal i found a way around it but it aint friendly to other users. Even though it aint how p2p works you're free to go if you don't share but not with all programs.

I use DC++, I've only not been able to find a few, great source for anime and movies too. Only with this you have to share, and certain ammounts of files, and certian types of files like no installed games or programs or useless files, for each hub( www.hublist.org has a list with a ton of hubs that you can put right into the program) but that's how on a hub with only 1000 people on it you can find most things you're looking for.

Not illegal in Canada buddy. And all the rest are ways I'm looking to either circumnavigate, or lessen.

In Canada, it's illegal to <i>share</i> (send or advertize for). Downloading is fine. For now.

Soulseek is by far the best. It's not even close. I've used Kazaa and Limewire, and while Limewire was good, Soulseek is about a bazillion times better.

[Shoden]

maybe next time Limewire mucks up I'll turn to soul seek.

[Buster Sword Strike]

I think it's pretty damn stupid to put your favorite artist out of business just to save a few Pounds/Dollars. I mean if they make that great of music they deserve for their "best" fans to at least give them a few dollars in their lifetime.

[TheAbominatrix]

You arent going to put them out of business by downloading their music. The amount of money they get through touring alone is insane, not to mention their other merchandise.

[lordblazer]

Bit torrent.

i use ares and e-donkey, there ok

Agreed.

[DMKA]

I use Limewire...not once have I had a problem with it (or corrupted files...that's definitely an issue with your system, not Limewire). Soulseek is too complicated, so I only use it to get music from Necronopticous, since he has like, every FF song ever.
