i just realised how few cool mp3s i have. i've ripped most of the music on this pc from my cds, bizarre collection that i have. but i'm thinking i'd like something new, and interesting. perhaps even some odd stuff. any ideas how and where?
tried kazaa - the ads shit me - and hald the stuff is mislabelled crap. ditto for a few other mp3 'browsers' that i've tried. hours wading through lists and half the dls are crap or broken. not to mention the idiots who put files into password protected zip files, or change the file extensions so windows tried vaiantly to load them into some applicaiton or other - choking and killing my whole session.

Kazaa Lite is pretty decent (and lacks the spyware of its counterpart). WinMX also does the trick when K-lite fails for me. Other than that, I have no idea. There are a number of IRC channels that have f-serves and some websites offer downloads, but, for the most part, I have no experience with them. If one of the p2p programs doesn't have it, I usually ask my friends.

ah! thanks for the pointers to kazaa lite - no idea it existed. the 'full' version was extremely annoying - the addons crashed the pc regularly, and were just plain annoying.
i'll give winmx another go, now that i have tidied up after finally getting the last remnants of kazaa off the system. found all sorts of little bits of crap in the registry and ont he harddrive after 'uninstalling' the 'full' kazaa program.

[livejournal.com profile] abiku beat me to it... WinMX has nearly always found me what I was looking for. You've just got to stay connected long enough to dl what you want. ;)

Otherwise, I'm in the half-arsed process of putting all my mp3's on CD, so if there was anything among them you liked (sent you a list a while back), you can borrow the CD's when all done.

i am finding kazaa lite most agreeable. i'll have a look through your extensive list, and let you know what grabs my interest. i'll also have a look through my collection and put a list together of what i have, sometime soonish.
