What do you use to download mp3s?


Kazaa, Soulseek, etc -- what do you use? Not just for albums, but singles

What about "Newsgroups"? I have no idea how to use it (them?), tho


And in looking for some suggestions for songs to check out, I stumbled across a couple threads. I then copied/pasted pretty much everything (even stuff I've heard) and made a list that I'll refer to over the next while, I'm sure. Though I might as well paste it here for whatever purpose

So yeah, it's not really anything remotely official
There aren't even 200 songs
And one of the threads was not for the BEST songs, but most "beautiful"

Anyway, for anyone curious or looking for some random suggestions

Knows the Score
Was it the same people posting over and over again in the best whatever lists?

That's a pretty narrow minded selection of music.

I'll check out Bitcomet, thanks.

What do you guys use to find single songs, though?

You're just upset that Travis Tritt didn't get nominated, aren't you...

So basically, this thread is about music piracy?
No, it's about mp3 clients.

300chf ain't shit to me
i don't use it all that often anymore, but i've always been a fan of winmx. not real great for real obscure music, though. i mainly use it to download clubmixes or extended versions of songs on my mixed compilation albums, so when i put them on my mp3 player i don't have the clipped ends.
