Best file sharing program

[Dalton]

Quick question for the cool kids ....

What is the best file sharing program? I have used soulseek for quite a while, but I hadn't been on for several months (I buy most of my music) and when I got on I found that there weren't a lot of people sharing music.

So what programs do you guys use? Thanks,

I mostly just download full albums from forums that are around for that very reason. But for individual tracks, I find limewire is pretty good. I've found some pretty rare U2 b sides when I was assembling the iTunes boxed set (without actually buying it) among some other rarities by other artists. It's obviously good for less obscure tracks too. I'd go with limewire.

Thanks IMP.

However, the thing I liked about soulseek is that I could download entire albums. I rarely download single tracks.

Come on - I know a lot of you are music theifs. Share your secrets!!!

A Torrent Client and Mininova or ISOhunt is about all ya need.

Napster probably was the best a long long long time ago.

uTorrent

Bittorrent is the wave of the future, mannn

i use soulseek and bittornado, back in the day though, audiogalaxy was my favorite, it was so simple, had so much information to help you learn about the artists, allowed you to select the order in which stuff was downloaded, after you qued hundreds of songs.

I use LimeWire generally.
But the reason I only use it is because my old computer was too... dinosaur-like to have multiple programs.

I should get this uTorrent and SoulSeek.

Soulseek

soulseek, indeed, I don't understand my life without soulseek

also torrents for me

Salome and Jack, does it seem to you like the number of people sharing on soulseek has diminished? I can never seem to find things I am looking for lately....

limewire pro is the best.

i used limewire for about a year, and my friend gave me his pro, it's perfect.

I thought people got tired of low-bitrate, shitty quality individual tracks and abandoned Soulseek / Limewire?

weird, I feel the opposite way
i don't know, but months ago, maybe a year, it was almost impossible to find things like 65daysofstatic, now is too easy, and it's the same with other bands

bittorrent's cool as hell too, but most tracks I get from Limewire are good quality too. Plus, most of the time I want individual tracks.

Direct Connect Plus Plus

It sounds like you have never used Soulseek. Soulseek allows you to search and download albums with a click of a button.
