i just really want a program that can really search for the song you're looking for. lmk. thanks!

coltsfever

go to kazaa.com that is where I download all my songs. It is a good site. It has everything that I have ever looked for. software, movies, songs, pics.

I use WinMX (www.winmx.com) d/ls sometimes are a little slower but if you have dsl/cable its no problem and it doesnt have spyware like Kazaa, etc.

CrunchyChicken

Kazaalite.com runs Kazaa without the spyware.

winmx or bearshare

stay away from kazaa for music.. that's what id say

coltsfever

what is spyware?

NikeBasketball

winmx is the way to go,not as crowded as Kazaa and no pops or syware at all.Like they said it is a little slower but I think the 'diet' kazza charges a $1 a month fee now if your a new user to kill the spyware.And i've yet to have a song or even sports clips for that matter that I could'nt find on winmx. you can DL the latest version HERE

ya KaZaA.com that so awesome

thanks for ur replies guys. i'll be sure to try all of the 3 programs you guys mentioned.

ilya, why stay away from kazaa?

once again, thanks for ur replies.

ilya

winmx or bearshare is the way to go! im telling you


why stay aawy from kazaa for music? well... it doesn't have as many music files as the other 2, and most of the ones it DOES have, is 128kbps. now if you dont have good speakers, or aren't a great music fan, it will be good for you. the fiels are smaller too.. but when i download music, i get at least 192

i use kazaa, i get songs, movies, pictures, basically any kind of media. i havent personally tried any others cause i have been happy with kazaa.

ilya

nah... mIRC is the way to go for anything other than songs and pictures.. full movies, full software, full games..

ejones06

ilya..cuz tonight i just went to download.com and wrote down ALL the programs that download mp3. so far, i downloaded about 16 programs and they pretty much all suck! i did find a decent one which can actually search for specific songs but the results are pretty low. like i said, i'll try bearshare, winmx, and kazaa and see which is best for me.

MyNapster... another thing like Napster

bjork73

I used to like Morpheus (essentially the same networks/format as Kazaa) because I could get games and stuff along with whatever music I wanted to find. But then it switched to some sort of open-source format (like BearShare) which I find a major pain to use; then I found WinMX which is almost as good as the original Napster as far as getting music; you can also get other things like video clips and stuff from WinMX but I've never really tried to get anything but music. Also, unless you consistently update to the newest version getting onto the network can be a very slow process, but that's only a minor quibble.

My vote: WinMX by far, unless you can make sense of that open-source stuff

jason and kr, tell me more about those 2 progs. don't just give me the name.

thanks for ur replies.
