Re: [313] decent P2P programs?
I've been on soulseek for about a week and a half now, and it's taking it's toll on a 56k user. I've had very little sleep, as maintaining the connection on my pc is hard, but it's really good. there is a vast amount of stuff to be had. I'm also only really into getting DJ sets, with the occasional "try before buy" track download. Am currently waiting for 1 Derrick Carter set, 2 live Coil performances, 1 Stacey Pullen set, 1 Terrence Parker set, Autechre live @ Sonar 2000, Steve Bicknell set, 1 Atmosphere track & 2 Steve Reich pieces. Of course, I don't expect to have all that for at least a week on my connection, but it'll be worth it and there's plenty more to come. Someone mentioned winmx, I haven't used it but a friend was telling me about it. It has a feature that AG had, which means that if you start downloading a file from someone and they go offline, if any other user online holds the same file, it will continue getting the same file from that other user, so you could end up getting one download from many peoples' computers. With slsk once you initiate a download, you are dependant on the owner being online at the same time as you, which means that downloading a 160Mb set on a 56k connection can take a very, very long time. I just wish I'd had a music capable PC before AG died, it sounds like it was great.

Re: [313] decent P2P programs?
I'll second Soulseek. Another relatively bs-free program is WinMX, which happens to be my first choice. www.winmx.com I've tried Soulseek a couple of times in the few weeks I've had it... for what I've been looking for, WinMX seems to have a much larger quantity of offerings. And it's not simply quantity either, I've had good luck with finding new electronic music to sample. I'll note that a couple of people I know did initially experience problems connecting with WinMX, but after tinkering with some settings, they were able to get it to work fine. Personally, I've never had a problem (I'm on dial-up and I also use a firewall). Tried LimeWire... I hated it. Also tried out something called Blubster, which was so-so... I still prefer WinMX over that. I also have Bearshare, I have had no luck getting it to even work. Check out www.afternapster.com for a fairly comprehensive list of what's hot as far as the current offering of P2P programs go. I know of people that have had good luck finding songs via ftp, but I'd only go that route with a broadband connection. There's not much that's more boring than watching something upload for 20-30 minutes in order to satisy someone's "ratio" requirements.
