ppl try grokster out. I'm poting this post on ever tpart of this forum so more ppl try it out or use it

 

ever since AG went down I've been searching for a good mp3 sharing program

heres the pro's and cos I discovered to all of them that ive used

 

KAzaa

pros: large number of users , able to dled things easily

cons: only allows mp3 qith 128 quality, & worms abound!

 

winmx

pros: large number of users

allows you to download high quality mp3's

cons: biggest con - winmx puts u in a que if other ppl want to download the file b4 u .. so u have to wait in a queue & if only one personhas that file the wait can be long

plus the interface to winmx is less than desirable ... to finicky to accomplish complex things . not as user friendly as kazaa or ag

 

imesh :

same pros and cons as kazaa

 

edonkey:

pros - dont know any

cons- can never connect upto any of the servers ... thier always full , which makes it pretty useless , can someone tell me how and when to logg in??

 

blubster:

not a bad mp3 sharing program , easy to use, quite a few users

cons: has no resume feature on it , so if someone cancels out on u .. ur stuck with an incomplete file .. brings back memories of aold napster days

 

Grokster

has design and setup like kazaa and morpheus

but with one big difference! you CAN download any quality of mp3 not just upto 128, so it has the simplicity of kazaa (not ag that was the best .. but we cant get everything)

only major con - really just needs more users , hence this post , all you ag heads get sharing with grokster (they've even released a prgram that lets u transfer ur ag shred folder to you grockster shred folder ... I dont know why , but they have)

so if more psytrancers start using GROKSTER .. we could have the filesharing bliss we once had at ag .. well almost .. ag was almost perfect .. but this is almost as good hope ta sseya there.

 

 

PS thismay sound like a prmotion but it isnt .. im just a regular doofer, whoe been on a search for a good mp3 progy and has finally foud something that could be the next ag ... or as I have said almost... u guys decide

I thought I'd let ppl know sice there have been a few queries

ok i tried grokster

 

IT SUCKS! BIG TIME

 

it gives you so many pop up ads , it's jut unbelivable, i had to uninstal it right away, it was impossible to use a computer , cuz i had to shut down all those pop ups every 10 sec

 

don't even try it people cuz god knows what that thing instals in your computer besides annoying ads

 

btw if you like Kazaa , use kazaa lite ( www.kazaalite.com) exact same thing but no pop ups and no spyware

Apparently, Soulseek is meant to be good especially for electronic music. Personally, I like Direct Connect (I use the DC++ client). There are a few psy hubs out there with over 100 users by now so it's not too bad...

hint: hub.endemic.org and goavibes.dns2go.com
