Buy the CDs. Or don't buy them at all.

I think you can purchase individual mp3s, like from places like mp3.com, etc.

This is a gnutella client but maybe you'll like it more then the other one/s you've tried. I've found it to be better then anything else out there.

You may find that most of the users here - and most of the serious Linux users - stronlgy oppose piracy in any form.

Oh, BTW ..... there is a proggie called napshare too :D

Cheers :)

Have you tried gnapster yet? That's what I use and it's pretty easy (very napster-like, go figure). I don't have the url though.

So you have absolutely no mp3's on your drive? Better search, just 1 and you are a HIPPOKRIT.

You may find that most of the users here - and most of the serious Linux users - stronlgy oppose piracy in any form.

Piracy, what is piracy, that could be interpreted many ways and is subject to the opinions of many.

So somebody start a thread in rant "Who doesnt have 1 single MP3 on their System that they didnt pay for"

Ive seen the screen shots of alot of people posting here and the 1 thing similar about them all was xmms running with a list of their MP3s streaming below.

So in closing I will say if youve done it once, just once for that 1 little file you wanted, you are as guilty as all the rest.

BearShare and Morpheus for Windows, NapShare for Linux. BearShare and NapShare are very much alike.

I gotta go with Audio Galaxy. They've been having lots of problems lately, but I've always been able to find more there than anywhere else. You may wait for a while to get a file, but as long as nothing weird happens, you will get the it. Plus, no transfer errors! The last time I used Napster, I tried to get 23 songs. 19 of them errored out, 2 of them had very poor sound, and one was mislabeled. AG at it's worst isn't that bad, just slow and sometimes your queue dissapears so save the page once in a while just in case.
