Downloading music

[iluvtofly 0]

So I typically use LimeWire to download music. However lately it won't connect. I downloaded Kazaa and it's doing the same thing.

I haven't changed any security settings recently. Any idea why this is happening?

What program do you use? (Free preferably)

How's yours doing?

I don't think I download that much that the FBI would be interested in me. I download maybe a couple songs a month. I'm just too poor to buy the cd's. Plus I don't like buying an entire cd for just 1 or 2 songs.

dc++ is the best i've found, if you just want single, even rare, songs. For any more or less popular album, use some torrent client.

Neither will work well if the problem is a firewall or similar.

Is there a difference between stealing a gift card someone threw away and stealing music?

limewire hasnt been blocked, i used it a couple of hours ago.
as far as bittorrent goes, www.mininova.org is pretty good.

how can you steal something that was thrown away?

Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together. I vote for Chicago where they have strict gun laws.

Limewire has gone to Frostwire.

No...it actually hasn't.

[Glipazide 0]

Sorry. The project was started by members of the Limewire open-source community. Frostwire is a peer-to-peer file sharing program for the Gnutella and BitTorrent protocols. Frostwire is written in Java, and is a fork of Limewire. Close enough?

[normiss 898]

Given that the original product Limewire is still available...AND does all those same functions...with Java being the only difference...and therefore NO reason for me to move to the Frost version.
I'm unclear as to why they did this...

[Glipazide 0]

I used Limewire for a while. On January 1, 2008, it no longer worked. So I set out to find something like it and Frostwire is what I came up with.

Maybe the only difference is the blocking code that was pressured by the RIAA?

that could be....I didn't realize that had changed...my Limewire still works fine.

I hate java based apps...too many effing version issues to keep up with!

She didn't even post in that thread so how is it relevant?

I wasn't refering to the thread because she posted in it. I referred to it because so many people thought it was wrong to take a gift card from a customer who didn't want it but it's perfectly ok to download music for free. I find it funny.

[normiss 898]

Care to guess how much some of us have paid for music we've never listened to? Or maybe that we already own it in another format?
Remember the albums put out in the 80's????
