i know kazaa has a lot of songs with static over them but is their any programs that do not contain these worthless files other than bittorrent?

Get emule and learn how to configure it. Works great for me. Finds way more resources than kazaa and even gets the rarest stuff such as PSX games.

I successfully downloaded Tombraider 2 the other day.

soulseek is the way my friend.

but, if you dont want to wait in qeues and get frustrated with some slow download speeds try ares. i've been getting a lot of music from it lately, and no fakes yet.

ares works good for just signle songs, but soulseek dominates for albums. B)

In my experience, for albums you'll do better with eMule. you can get all the songs in an single archive file, and from mutiple sources.
Plus there's not the whole "I don't know you so I'm not gonna share with you" thing.

but whatever your preference.
Kazaalite still works well for random stuff
and Ares is growing nicely.
and of course IRC and BitTorrent.

summary: there's plenty of filesharing apps worth checking out, don't let my or anyone else's bias toward any single one stop you from finding which one works best for you.

Then you don't know how to use it properly, or are looking for Musica Obscura.

I can get most things I want and have downloaded literally hundreds of full albums. In fact now I think of it I would imagine the figure is more like 1,000.

However to each their own, I wish you luck with whichever app you think is better.

EMULE is your choice, m8.

It offeres rare stuff. Most of it is FULL albums in any quality and format u wish -- MP3 (320, VBR, etc), MPC, OGG, LOSSLESS .....

There is no other program that will give u the quantity, variety, quality of music to d/l

Your question has no answer......it&#39;s all about preference, as well as knowing
how to use the program.

Try a few out, there were plenty listed in the replies above, and see which one
you can configure so that it works for you, and at the same time gives you
results......there is no "best" one out there.

Keep in mind that opinions are like @ssholes.....everyone has one.

And if anyone wants to flame me for saying "there is no "best" one out there".....
let me just say ahead of time, "Bite me".

Happy downloading.
