    There's not a torrent for every single that comes out. "People still use Limewire?!" has been one of the most common jokes I've seen -- and yet no one has pointed out a comparable program to download singles from.

    Yes, I used Limeiwre. And yes, I'm SOL now when I want to download any not-that-popular song. If you can help me, it would be appreciated.

    What kind of music are you listening to? That must be the must obscure stuff on earth if you cant find a torrent or even a mediafire/rapidshare/megaupload link for it. Seriously, I'm curious.

    Completely agree with you regarding hard-to-find stuff. Oh and if torrents don't help, I use Soulseek. Great, free program.

    there is a "shadow" limewire that hackers created since the shutdown.

    You can download the program that connects to it (comes w/simple instructions) through btjunkie.

    Freaking Limewire? What happened, you get tired of Bear Share? :confused:

    It is very easy to download singles through torrents.

    lol, this reminds me of when I thought WinMX was the shiznit for music. Then I got an invite to OiNK and life changed. Now Waffles and What give me my free stuff.

    I'm surprised that anyone use(d) Limewire anymore. That's so Napster. I used WinMX for awhile too.

    Now it's only private torrent sites, Demonoid and if all else fails TPB.

    For the download of single mp3 files, one should consider beemp3.com. It mostly links to mp3 files posted on blogs.
