I don't know which sites are the best (regarding any topic), but I did do some 'sharing' of free tunes a few years ago but I ran out of time and patience waiting for downloads to be complete only to end up with a different tune than I expected and/or poor sound quality... soooooo, I paid via itunes for the sheer convenience/quality of it. :twocents:

We used limewire for a long timeand have upgraded to the limewire pro, very rarely can I not find what I want. I think the wife paid $34 for a lifetime membership.

I'm a strong believer in torrents, for a number of reasons.

#1. The songs are normally ripped at 320kbps (better quality)
#2. You get the whole album.
#3. It seems to be significantly faster than limewire.
#4. Limewire in the past has been known to have lots of virus infected mp3's etc. Not sure if that is still the case, but it does open a LOT of ports on your firewall, allowing access more easily into your pc.

Limewire has killed my neighbors computer twice now....TG is correct...too many open and changing ports....it's just a matter of time. I've succumb to iTunes and paying for the stuff I want...a bud gave me a hard drive with 40,000 mp3s on it...I'm good for a while!! Library near 50,000 songs !!

I have worked on a lot of peoples computers with Limewire installed. I usually just charge a bottle or a case of beer to re-install the OS and all updates. Please, everyone, keep using Limewire!
