So, how do you download your music on your computer? Legally by buying it from a website or by using LimeWire ( if you are using LimeWire, delete it and download FrostWire, the gnutella network sucks in every possible way.) or torrents to illegally download it? I can admit to be a torrent user.

limewire. the new one.
torrents sometimes got tired of azures tho

hows frostwire?

I use a youtube convertor you can download anything off youtube in a music or video format the videos work perfect on your mobile phones too!

limewire and my dads albums

Well, I've tried the YouTube thingy, but the problem is that the sound quality is sometimes terrible.

The difference between LimeWire and FrostWire is that LimeWire uses the gnutella network (not good). If you use LimeWire, I recommend that you download peer guardian (If you don't know what it is, then check it out from for example jimmyr at youtube).

limewire ftw
i tried frostwire but it didnt have the songs even though i typed in the exact same thing as i type in limewire, and it would have so bugs/glitches so i just deleted it.
BTW, what is a torrent? i've heard of them, game torrents, music torrents, almost everything comes also in a torrent, what are they ? some1 fill me in plz.

Torrents are thingys you can download from torrent sites, but you need a program like BitTorrent or BotComet to get them. You can download almost anything as torrents, programs, albums, or even a working windows XP (for all of you who's struggling with vista)

I stick with private torrent sites. Jerks use to stick ad-ware in my song downloads from limewire, even though I had limewire pro, and it use to piss me off when I would be playing a P.C. game and Ad-ware would take me out of the game just so I could read advertisements. (Although, That was way back then when I had no Idea was a virus scanner was. :lol: ) Imo it's more easier using a program like limewire but not to safe.

If you're after torrents, always use http://isohunt.com in my opinion to find them. Probably the best out of all the ones I've used in my years.

As for a browser/downloader I use BitComet

UTorrent and Aserus are wayyyy better. I've herd many negative things about Bitcomet.

I've been using BitComet for over a year and never had any problems. What kind of things have you heard?

I've read the below quote of the net. The rest of the users seemed to bash Bitcomet as well but I didn't read to far in, I wasn't that interested.

Quote:

Firstly, BitComet cheats: 1.BitComet incorrectly uses DHT on private torrents/trackers, even ignoring BitComet's user's settings NOT to if the tracker briefly goes down! 2.BitComet deliberately misreports upload and download amounts to trackers and seeds in order to get the "lion's share" of upload bandwidth from seeders. (Others have said that using super-seed as a seeder often takes >200% of the torrent's size to create other seeds due to BitComet's cheating-by-default.) 3.BitComet disconnects and reconnects to download more than is fair via optimistic unchoke -- (which is meant to give new arrivals something to share. Sadly, Azereus is reported to do this too. Automatically droping working connections is hostile activity -- it creates lots of churn which costs extra bandwidth for trackers and peers alike. 4.BitComet seems to favor uploading to other BitComet clients, even when getting faster download speeds from other clients. The most extreme case was a private tracker/torrent on a huge college lan with "100mbps" connections -- the person who did this could download at >5mbps if using BitComet but only ~5-15 KB/sec if using µTorrent. A ban on a particular BitComet version won't affect a new BitComet version that doesn't fix the problems, or client id hacks which spoof different client+version messages. It'd be an arms race of sorts, just like AV software having to identify ever-changing viruses. A total BitComet ban would limit BitComet's author's incentive to remove the cheating, because even a noncheating BitComet version would still be partially banned till EVERYONE on µTorrent upgrades to a non-banning version. Instead of banning BitComet clients, ignore them! ...by µTorrent doing a little "tit-for-tat": uploads from µTorrent to BitComet clients will always get upload bandwidth priority (High, Normal, Low) 1 setting lower than everyone else. Also retain information about ALL connected and disconnected peers in a torrent. Then, don't treat reconnecters like "new peers" which deserve optimistic unchoke. Instead, snub them! The disconnected peer list could even be used by firewalled peers to quickly retry disconnected unfirewalled peers. (It does no good to try to connect to a disconnected firewalled peer.) By targetting BAD BEHAVIOR, µTorrent could handle any client which does the same without additional code.

Possibly because they are respectful towards the artist and they don't want to get in trouble. ;)
