    I have limewire but it is now not working due to a ongoing suite against them or so it says when I start it up. I have always used it to get music.
    Does anyone know of any progs that are comperable to limewire?

    thanks

    Amazon MP3 is a great place to download music.

    iTunes is good too, but it generally costs a bit more.

    Ugh.....

    (1) use Firefox
    (2) install the DownloadHelper plugin
    (3) visit sites such as playlist.com, mp3bear.com, bomb-mp3.com, etc...
    (4) search for, and play song
    (5) while song is playing, click on DownloadHelper icon in toolbar to save song to computer
    (6) move out of the cave that you live in and join the 21st century. ;)

    I use torrents mainly, but it can be a bit confusing to set up. The other program I use is Freecorder(found at freecorder.com). Play any music or video(youtube ect) and it will record whatever is played. Nice thing about this program is that you can have your computer muted and it will still record because it is recording off of the sound card.

    I was just messin' with ya man.

    Stay away from services like Limewire and MP3Rocket. Serious security issues all over that method of downloading. Your pc might be doing things you have no idea of at this point.

    I stopped using limewire back in 2002. I can't believe people still use that.

    Torrents all the way
