Limewire
So does anyone else use Limewire to download music?
Mine hasn't been working the past couple days and I've read places that Limewire will no longer be available for downloading music. :(
I was just wondering if anyone knows of other good places to download music from.

One thing I don't suggest doing is downloading the entirety of people's music folders off of the DC++ network. it's very disturbing to find out that someone whom you share the same taste in video games with happens to have a ridiculous obsession for Hilary duff. ugh..
But like people said previously most albums can be found for torrent download. For really obscure songs and remixes you can always rip it off youtube, but the sound quality won't be pristine.

Upgrade to torrents, or frostwire at the very least.

Try Frostwire it's basically the same as Limewire.
Though you may run into problems with fewer users on account of Limewire being shut down, I haven't been on in a while so I couldn't really tell you. |
