www.bearshare.com is the best, if you can put up with ads.

lol... if you were just doing it to back up your cd's then these programs wouldn't be any use to you when you can just use a ripper and rip the tracks onto your hard drive..nice one though....here is a list of places to use to get music

Direct Connect

Napster

BearShare

WinMX

KaZaA Media Desktop

eDonkey2000 Client for Windows

Grokster

MusicCity Morpheus

iMesh

LimeWire

AudioGalaxy Satellite

SongSpy

mIRC

AOL

Yep Mirc All the way. Takes a bit to get use too but much better then any of the other apps.

[escojones]

mirc!

www.winmx.com

did i miss any? :ditsy:

u might also try to find some ftps or some newsgroups.

oh yeah..and mirc is probably the best to use. it's not easy for newbies to get use to but once you get to know how to use irc it's so easy to find quality music. the programs listed are mostly spyware filled junk but those are ones i've used in the past...i haven't installed any of them since formatting and don't plan to because they are alot better ways to get music then trying to look for any p2p sharing progs.

erm, i cant rip them from cd because,um,i broke the cd drive?

thanks for your help everybody

audio galaxy is teh best thing to download your mp3s with...

[twist]

ftp (upload and make friends to get accounts)

irc (to find ftps)

newsgroups

p2p

but i only get full cds so if you just want single songs p2p is the best

[nekrosoft13]

i get music from my local library :p

you can rent 95% of all cds, copy and return :)

but sometimes i use

winmx

edonkey

kazaa (cracked with out spyware)

audiogalaxy sometimes

[HalibutStu]

i like WinMX best myself but i haven't tried alot of the other ones. and what's this about Napster, i thought they were dead??

[xpmike]

napster isn't dead..they switched to a subscriber based service....being a butt pirate is starting to cost money these days :cheeky:
