If you want to download individual mp3's try Frostwire. Same as Limewire but with all the spyware/adware taken out.

For full albums BitTorrent is best but a bit more involved than Frostwire.

I've tried emule and Ares, they both seem nice for individual MP3s. Used to use WinMX all the time, but after the shutdown, I don't know the condition of their network anymore. Sad to see it go. :(

Opennap.. just follow the link in my sig...

and use the client winlop, download it for free here... (choose the zip file)

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=66404&package_id=114522&release_id=268467

this is a multi-sourcing client, so expect high speeds with your downloads... :cool:

Log onto Mensa.no-ip.org:8888 ..and ask fo me ( Nigel)

I used to have lime wire and I loved it!
but I heard its loaded with spyware


Does frostwire have a lot of stuff or is it fairly new with not a lot of people on it?

http://www.manolito.com/ Only searches music files. No adware/spyware you only get a little popup when it starts asking you to upgrade to the pro version (which isnt really necessary since the free version works fine)

Shareaza is a nice P2P program, I always got good speeds with that.

Then I found out that torrents exist and that downloading 3GB+ programs/games was possible, so I switched to torrents.

Hope this helps you. :D

Shareaza - just for music and small files

Torrents - Large files and files you might not find on p2p networks

Emule - for rare files you cant find anywhere else (use as a last resort)

Shareaza does support torrents though :)

Shareaza supports torrents and connects to the edonkey network.

Torrents, Gn1, Gn2 & ed2k all in one - not a bad p2p app to have.

ive had limewire for a long time with no problems. i ran all my anti spyware programs and nothing turned up. just make sure to run everything you download through a virus scanner

Ares is good, Kazaa look alike ! no spy-ware, lots of songs esp new stuff.

I just wish more people would share more 192 bit files and more older rock ag 70' sand 80's.

MP3 on P2p I recommend limewire if you are a patient person and very on to finding rare music. you can try soulseek. it's pretty good...^^
