Title: Music download sites....
Post by: The Showstoppa on March 17, 2009, 05:58:19 AM
Bought an ipod.  Anybody have suggestions on good sites to download from?  I don't mind paying, if it's reasonable.

Limewire.

Great way to get an infected pc. Then again, if you got no money then it's worth it as you can't afford the tracks and got nothing for them to to steal   :)

If you're cool paying Show...then apple store is your first and last port of call.

Personally I think that Ares Galaxy is better than Limewire for downloading music - much faster, just as much choice, and you can check what it's downloading before you finish (unlike Limewire) it just so you can check you're not downloading some bullshit.

torrents are the way to go.

limewire is always infected, and if not, you will find other problems such as 1 second gaps in songs which result in a corrupt track if you burn to a cd, and they also play around with the bitrates as they may show a 256k which is originally ripped from a 64kb, and so on.

Limewire is fine as long as you only download anything with the extension .mp3 or .avi, basically any video or music file.Start downloading .exe and you are in trouble.

Anyone who downloads an unknown .exe file deserves whatever they get.

itunes/ apple store.

99 cents per track.


If youre gonna steal it, use a dedicated crappy PC to do it, cause limewire will eventually install something which will slow you down.

You stand a bigger risk of getting hit by lightning than charged for downloading music.

well, but you can walk into a lightning storm on to a plain field with a ten foot metal pole attached to your head and standing in a 60x40 feet pool, and you can download from a site being currently on trial.

This is only the first trial, but given that the pirate bay loses, it may cause a lightning storm of other trials for that site.

Even if the pirate bay loses, it will not be feasibly possible to sue millions and millions of people and have them undergo a trial. Another solution must be found and this trial is retarding that process.

If it's on radio or TV you get it for free.
If it's educational it should be freely available to all.
If you've paid for it in the past then it's paid for.
If it's shit then you shouldn't pay for it anyway.
There is no stopping it.

Companies should just admit defeat and tag on a donation address to use if you liked it.  That or quit thinking anyone is going to pay $50 to download a book they can get for free, drop their prices, keep extremely comprehensive catalogues, and have a great dl speed.

BitTorrent.

x1000000

For the Limewire and Ares people....get with the program.  Welcome to virus-ville.  I have re-done four desktops of friends this year from those two. 

If you are using torrents....make sure you are using PeerGuardian

Yup totally agree, they have complete albums, all great quality and user comments, no viruses like limewire and you can select to only download certain songs if the torrent has like a gigabit of music.

why don't you monkeys just go to google blog search, then type in the band name or song name you want and follow it with "megaupload" or "rapidshare".

they said they don't keep logs, early on in the trial.
anyway, don't do illegal downloads, your pis does keep logs tho.
Amazon is great for mp3s and itunes is easy. Rip all your cds in itunes first tho.
