Bronze Member Username: 4realadealaTampa, Florida Post Number: 25 Registered: Mar-08 | Hey was wondering if anybody knew of a good peer to peer? I don't want free ones like morpheus, limewire, frostwire, and I think that I tunes sucks because of prices. Qtrax claims to be legal while remaining free but their selection sucks. I justed wanted to know if anybody knew of a good cheap p2p with a huge selection, and that possibly allowed you to download in cd quality. |

And besides in past experience with freeware the quality sucks most of the time and some computer nerds get stiffys from screwing up your computer. |

Torrents are 4-5 years old. Both p2ps and torrents are outdated technology. The way to go these days is IRC via DC++ and Newsgroup. With newsgroup, my average download speed is 8-9 mb/s. |

Bronze Member Username: 4realadealaTampa, Florida Post Number: 29 Registered: Mar-08 | Please Nick, go into detail if you would. And of course the main question is, is it illegal? Hell this is a wild one, but does anybody know anyone who has been caught downloading? |

Gold Member Username: Tatonka-[Team Audib... Post Number: 1645 Registered: Mar-07 | Downloading anything copyrighted without permission (like downloading music, software, and movies) is ILLEGAL. There are just ways to not get caught. And yes, I know of a few people who have been caught. To go in detail, see if your ISP offers a newsgroup server. |

Bronze Member Username: 4realadealaTampa, Florida Post Number: 30 Registered: Mar-08 | I'm sorry for being so out of date, but I don't understand the concept of newsgroup server. I googled it and a bunch of things popped up about their system being the best platform. When you say see if my ISP offers this do you mean it is something that I can call them about and ask? Again I am sorry but this is completely new to me. Thanks |

Albumwash, Megadownload, or just typing "[album name and band name] blogspot] into a search engine usually works. Sometimes it requires more creative searching but generally you can find what you want. Even add "FLAC" if you want that. I still haven't gotten DC++ to work and this is good enough for me. I'd have to go out and get a bigger HDD if I could do 8mb/s anyway. lol |
