Kaazaa and similars

Anyone knows wich´s the best program to download rare music(mainly floyd´s rare and live tracks)? I liked Audio Galaxy, but I think Kaazaa kinda sucks.

Furthernet used to be pretty good, they had loads of full roios in shn or mp3 format but they'd removed all the Floyd content the last time I looked, it might be worth checking it out again.

Re: Kaazaa and similars

I always thought Limewire was the best downloading program.

So far WinMX has done well enough for me.

I've never tried it, but I know a few guys who have Songspy.

Re: Kaazaa and similars

For downloading music only, I've been using SoulSeek. It's specially useful if you donate at least USD 5.00 a month, which will put you in a special "donators list", and which gives you priority in downloading songs.

Re: Kaazaa and similars

Kazaa sucks. I use WinMX for the music, although i prefer buying CDs. For larger files, I use eMule.

Re: Kaazaa and similars

There's a new way to download music called BitTorrent, and they can't catch you with it! Or at least not as easily. Probably the best tracker for it is www.sharingthegroove.org
They've got oodles and oodles of rare music in SHN, FLAC, APE, and WAV. There's some Floyd, and you can just ask for a reseed. (go to the Technobabble section to figure out what that means). They also have DVD video downloads. Another awesome site is www.suprnova.org, but they also have some officially released stuff, the fiends! If anyone has more questions about BitTorrent, don't hesitate to PM me.
