I use Soulseek. I like it better than LimeWire.
BTW, I googled Music Torrent and went to the first site listed and got a message from Mcafee saying that site was a known spyware site. Is that the norm with this stuff?

Bit torrents, as I understand them is a little more complicated, but faster and more efficient. I think the bit torrent software draws on multiple sources to fulfill your request, so if one person goes offline, or someone else's connection is slow, or their file is corrupted, your download resumes using one of the other streams. I'm not entirely sure about this, but I think that's kind of how it works.

Protect your computer with AV etc and most of them are ok. [apart from Kazaa, if it's still around] 🙁

if you want to use this method then the software i would personally recomend is azureus because ive found this to be a fairly easy to use program and everything after trying a few.

Originally posted by Dr Strangelovethere is another version of Kazaa that has a lot less problems in terms of viruses and stuff called KazaaLite, it works on the same structure as the normal one only with a lot less risk. last time i looked it was hard to find the real instalation files for this one though, but if anyone is interested i could probably find a copy for you to try.

To download torrents you'll need a client software I'd say get azureus or utorrent. As for sites, www.thepiratebay.org is good, my favorite is www.demonoid.com but you'll need membership for this one and registration isn't always open or you can try www.isohunt.com which is a searchengine that searches many different trackers.

You would never make that mistake if you give 2 minutes of genuine thought.
I am sure you'll be very careful about your "F" file. 😀
It can be F.ing at times 😛
