Re: Have you Stopped Using Napster?

1). Winmx......(best interface, u/ls & controls but d/ls iffy) 2). Morpheus..(best d/ls but returns sparse with poor u/ls, interface, controls & player) 3). Gnucleus...(best gnutella scheme with huge returns but high bandwidth user while idling) 4). Bear/Lime..(tricky & slow but can be usefull - use ad-aware to remove spyware from bear) 5). Napster.....(still need it - fast fast fast) |

i use morpheus and audiogalaxy.
both on a dial up connection. i think they both have about the same number of shared files, but if i had broadband i would use morpheus because some people share .wav files of songs (which <i>should</i> sound better than a .mp3. |

my current p2p habits....
1) <a href="http://www.mirc.com">irc</a> (specifically undernet; #mp3passion) - the only way to go for prerelease and new full albums. 2) <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/gnucleus">gnucleus</a> - my preferred client for 24/7 serving for a variety of reasons and features; but i admit i rarely download with it. 3) <a href="http://download.cnet.com/downloads/0-1896420-100-5590701.html?tag=st.dl.10001-103-1.lst-7-1.5590701">morpheus</a>/<a href="http://www.winmx.com/">winmx</a> - what i have to use right now for back catalogue stuff when i need it; i just don't like winmx and morpheus; it's obvious they are gonna bust out a for profit model sooner or later that will screw the users so i'm not bothering sharing on their systems. i've taken audiognome, napster, and bearshare off my system for different reasons. i'd love to serve on morpheus but the memory leak kinda nips that in the bud. i'm keeping my ears open for when it's fixed. many folks love <a href="http://www.forteinc.com/agent/freagent.htm">usenet</a> still for mp3s; i'm not one of them but if your not familiar with it you should give it a try just to know what it's all about.

I have now stopped using it because they just came out with v 2 beta 10.3 and have disabled use of older versions...which means beta 5 no longer works . Napster was excellent while it lasted.

for P2P I use morpheus
ideally I prefer FTP Thanks to cpud, he introduced me to his server (50 gigs of mp3) and the eventually to the ftp community. I met him during the last week of the unspoiled napster |

thanks for the info tg. I really enjoy using Morpheus but I at least like to keep my beta 5 working...just as a reminder of all the good times in the past.

I never really used Napster except for a brief trial period before all the controversy started. When the lawsuit was filed, I stopped using it and became a Napster opponent out of respect for the bands I admire. And because I saw it as a threat to my own musical interests.
But I later changed my mind and I don't see file sharing as a threat to musicians... perhaps to record labels, but I don't really care about them. I have since used audiogalaxy to download a conservative number of songs, and I bought at least a couple of CDs as a result. I have never burned MP3s to CDR as I find the quality of most MP3s to be too poor to waste a disk on. PS: I know I have never posted to the P2P forum before... but I figgured, what the hell. |
