Downloading music

Galactik · 2nd April 2002, 02:55

Just curious, what is a good app to use to download tunes? I have been using Kazaa, but am wondering if there is anything else that is better out there? Thanx.

LawnGnome2005 · 2nd April 2002, 03:07

Use Grokster or Direct Connect (can't remember site, might be directconnect.com)

GoldenSphynx · 2nd April 2002, 03:08

Well there r so many:
Morpheus(really sucks)
AudioGalaxy(nothin to complain about)
KaZaA(my personal fav)
WinMX(its ok, but i dont like the layout)
iMesh(dont really no too much on this one)
BearShare(also sucks)
LimeWire(also sucks)
Napster(who wants to pay for files?)
Grokster(dont no too much on this one either)
SwapNut(")
Napigator(")
Blubster(")
Swaptor(")
Methodus(i really like this one)
Newtella(dont no too much about this one)
EDonkey 2000(")
MyNapster(")

GoldenSphynx · 2nd April 2002, 03:16

And how can u do that?

Huehuetenango · 2nd April 2002, 03:19

download adaware

and replace a file, i'm not sure which, though i know it's a dll

or download kazaalite

That's pretty funny that you would think so differently about these two because they are basically the same program and use the same servers.

GoldenSphynx · 2nd April 2002, 04:35

no, kazaa uses FastTrack while morpheus really sucks and its slow because its on Gnutella

tjb2004 · 2nd April 2002, 04:49

Funny. IT'S THE SAME THING! (see attachment)

tjb2004 · 2nd April 2002, 04:52

Here's more proof:

GoldenSphynx · 2nd April 2002, 04:55

if u ask me that does not prove anything

Galactik · 2nd April 2002, 04:58

OK, I am kinda slow at this, but what is SPYWARE? and how does it effect me?

GoldenSphynx · 2nd April 2002, 05:08

spyware is used by companies to record every thing u do online so that they can bring u advertisements oriented that way--for instance if u looked at porn day and night theyd prob give ur address to porn companies and u get those stupid webcam things

I use Direct Connect and Kazaa.

Direct Connect can be found at www.neo-modus.com

[LMF]ZeroKool · 2nd April 2002, 07:10

Audiogalaxy.......Good
Kazaa........So-so

Haven't try the rest though.......

HOW??? Ive just used a spyware / adware cleaning thing now Kazaa and iMesh say that they need to be reinstalled. Ive tried Winmx and whenever i try to download stuff it always says "queued"

GoldenSphynx · 2nd April 2002, 12:49

Well so then that means that it is paused, u have to resume download

LawnGnome2005 · 2nd April 2002, 14:26

Where can I get Kazaalite???

Aeroe · 2nd April 2002, 15:28

www.kazaalite.tk

clean versions of audiogalaxy, grokster, imesh and limewire can be found here: www.cleanclients.tk

i think clean limewire is currently down again, try www.freewirep2p.com also some clean clients will put a fake cydoor .dll file, it's harmless. some need the file to run. audiogalaxy's clean version still of course has those filters.

i suggest you try some decentralized networks like blubster (www.blubster.com) it's faster than kazaa/grokster and winmx for mp3s. however it's mp3 only.

gnucleus, so advanced it doesn't have a stop button for searches

oh it can be annoying...

missyob · 2nd April 2002, 15:30

Direct connect DOES NOT contain spyware.

I use DC for movies.

Winmx for music.

ICQ for sharing with friends.

LawnGnome2005 · 2nd April 2002, 15:35

OMG the kazaalite website server is sooooooooooo slow. I just spent about 20 minutes waiting for the first page to load.

[LMF]ZeroKool · 2nd April 2002, 15:40

can someone summaries and point out which is the best of the best of the rest?

cmisker · 2nd April 2002, 15:41

I'm using the Morpheus Preview Edition right now and I love it. It is freakin' fast!!!

GoldenSphynx · 2nd April 2002, 21:52

I have 56k and the site is fast. The kazaalite link didnt work so i searched for it in iMesh and got it!

Its alot better as ALL of the previous uneeded crap (spyware / adware / shopping buttons etc) have all been squeezed out!

All ive got to find now is iMesh lite (if it exists!) If it does, im a happy man!

eleet-2k2 · 2nd April 2002, 23:19

"Cracked" Kazaa. http://kazaalite.tk

audiognome.com

henry3k56 · 3rd April 2002, 04:58

WinMX is the best of all. At least I'm not wasting my time on Audiogalaxy.com searching for a song that I can't find. Or using the crappy Morpheus PE. Kazza has spyware, and looks just like Morpheus.

Morpheus has NO spyware

GoldenSphynx · 3rd April 2002, 12:46

Ohh is that so! Check this out---Morpheus Spyware

weedsatan · 3rd April 2002, 13:49

ow...

prolly I'm old fashioned with not using these bandwidth absorbing useless filesharing appz that are crap.

But has any of you ever heard of this sweet little nice not bandwidth killing protocol called ftp...

Well it's neat and fast and you can find anything on it. you just have to know where to look.

Rabin_Crabmink · 3rd April 2002, 19:25

Direct Connect is the best file shairng service in the entire world. They have everything. And there are so many hubs that have so much stuff. Like this.

Hey Weed!

I use ftp and think it is wonderful. I have a couple of ftp sites that I have found. Do you have a list you can share? Or a suggestion as to where I can find some free ftp sites?

nature spirit · 4th April 2002, 12:38

there must be an international conference held to fix a strategy for all p2p users.

everyday a new software pops up and thus the number of songs shared is diffused and distributed which means less found results for everybody. there should be a campaign to orient users to one major application so the earth's library of music get consolidated and ready to share 4 everyone

(to me imesh and audiogalaxy are fine..I cud find some rare tunes on them..)

How about this then: I installed Morpheus and I was downloading something when someone reccomended me to use KaZaA. I downloaded it and opened it whilst Morpheus was still running. When I clicked on the Morpheus Icon it just maximised the Morpheus window.
Why you ask? Cos KaZaA is just an updated version of Morpheus.
