General Chat / Napster 2.0 is out!

Yay, napster 2.0 came out and is perfectly legal. It costs $.99 per song or $9.95 for an album. Its well worth it if you don't care about the fancy CD's and cases that you get in the store.

So, yeah, ill use it.its a cheaper way to get my music without the risk of getting my ass sued for music pirating. So how bout you?

Ok...

Napster... = money

Kazaa/Morhpeus/Piolet/Blubster/any other program = free.

Decisions decisions.

WinMX rocks my world, not sure about you.

Make sure this is part of your desicion.

Napster= legal.

Kazaa, etc.= chance of getting sued for up to $100,000 per download (but usually more like $1,000 per download.) And yes, i know people who have been sued.

go to windows.com, heh

Only if you're stupid enough to share them.

Piolet/Blubster

'These any good?

Kazza has turned shit lately.

Napster = Giving record companies money they still don't deserve, they need to earn it back from me after filing those stupid-ass lawsuits. Help, not hurt your consumers.

WinMX = Free, fast, easy, free, and free...

KazaaLite K++ and then always the newest version of that and you will get possibly any song you want if you know how to search right.

Just move all your music files away from your shared folder, or un-check the "Allow File Sharing" checkbox option.

Then, you will be OK, pirates.

Or you can be awesome like me and just buy good music and alleviate the problem altogether.

Napster-Money
Earth Station 5- Money
Morpheus-Legal and Free
Winmx-Spyware infestest but good downloader
Kazaa/ K lite- SUCK big Ass.

I trust morpheus the most plus the petitions and court cases they've won make them more reliable.

Keep in mind the RIAA also said they are drawing the line at 500 files, so they are not sueing Per download, I read a news article before.

I couldn't find any music that either wasn't looped or didn't work at all. I haven't had that problem at all with WinMX though.

Or you can choose the safe way and download your music, see if you like it and then buy it. Like I use to do it
I wouldn't ever not buy an album because I can download it. If I like it then I'll get it. Just because of the horrible sound quality MP3s have. And the cover and lyrics, and nice CD case, etc. etc.
QOTSA, how often does it happen that you regret having bought a certain CD?

Once, in terms of indieish albums or whatever.

30 Seconds to Mars.

I would call them an overhyped piece of shit, except that even the music press killed them...which leaves them only a piece of shit.

However, I don't buy music unless I have heard a song or two, via a download, radio, or listening to the record store audio system and seeing if I can discern the music I am listening to.

Ok so kill me I only have 7 Downloaded MP3's I buy my CD's as apposed to much downloading

I'll risk getting sued, fuck the RIAA

The wierd thing is that it Napster 2.0 is compatible with windows 95, 2000, and XP, yet it isnt compatible with 98 (which i have)...well that sucks


Oh, btw...is winMX a good system?

I'll risk it with KaZaA..I've tried Morpheus, BearShare, WinMX..and KaZaA is still better.

I love it.

The wierd thing is that it is downloadable for windows 95, 2000, and XP, yet it isnt downloadable for 98 (which i have)...well that sucks

Are you talking of Kazaa?

Ummmm... 95 and 98 are pretty much identical as far as that goes. Wherever it says 95, it also means 98.
