Try LimeWire

PM me if you want the Pro version

Best P2P program I have found is Direct connect (http://www.neo-modus.com/?page=Download) **** loads to download on there, and I have never got one of those crappy internet version to a song where it loops the courus.

I can get top 40 albums, compilations and singles on 3 dvd's which you can then burn onto seperate cd's if you like, £15 for the lot, updated every sunday.

limewire i find quite good.

[PuntoRob]

Actually, I've only just realised that LimeWire can detect whether a song/file is corrupted, so you are given the option to abort if you want to. Far superior to Kazaa 8)

www.winmx.com theres a good d/l programme

[southsider]

download a program called Bit Torrent.

Then go to a site like; www.suprnova.org

here you can download files called 'torrents'

torrents can be single or a mixture of files. for example, you can download a single or you could also download an whole album as 1 file.

When you are looking at the files to download you will see next to it, it will have a Number of 'seeders' and 'leaches'. Seeders are the number of people who are sharing the whole file and leaches are the people who are downloading the file, but also sharing the part(s) they have downloaded.

you can also download films, tv episodes, software and other stuff.

but the best thing about this method is that this is basically almost the start of the 'pirating chain' meaning you will get films n sh*t before any1 who's using kazza or other p2p programs.

if any tries this and has any problems, feel free to pm me.

oh by the way! i never do this, its just something i've heard!

[southsider]

oh yeah, another thing. when your downloading films, instead of downloading sh*t quality ones (like the ones you get on p2p)
you can download DVD quality vcds, dvd rips and dvd quality divx movies.

but you will need a special program to play the dvd rips strait from your hard drive.
