    Soulseek was not intended for everyone and his brother. There was a time
    when patience was a virtue in obtaining free art, now it seems everyone
    feels entitled to everything being fast and free.

    This is what makes Soulseek special.

    It's also the reason why fake files are such a rare problem, compared to other p2p apps: malicious users - unable to remain anonymous - are found out rather quickly. (case in point: I recently unintentionally shared a corrupted mp3 file. believe me I heard about it right away!)

    But if you don't like that, there are plenty of multipeer apps to choose from.

    its better its like your personally grabbing music from a actual person

    one of the reasons kazaa got so fucked was coz of the multiple sources easy to spread screeching mp3s (oh how i miss those screeching mp3 threads we had everyday)

    soulseek is also for albums

    its easy to find the fucked up fake files when you see someone shared a album that isn't released on newsgroups the bit rate isn't showing the time of the tracks are the same )20 min plus each tehd size of the files are the same everything is the same but the actual song title !! and you cant dl off these users anyway

    Use Ares for music. Great network, many files and it does support multi-user downloading.
    blah blah blah... whatever...

    well there's no hashing system, thus multipeer downloading is impossible.......

    i dont agree with the opinion of a couple of guys here that this would mess up the system, corrupted files in kazaa were due to the crappy hashing system, not due to the existence of a hashing system.......... ed2k is flooded with corrupted files, neither is gnutella, nor bt..........
    great FTP site for awesome quality video clips
    yeah, you have to sign up, but its worth it
