Re: SoulSeek

after suckling soulseek like a little gremlin of music for years, i've finally weaned myself off of it (somewhat--my posture is screwed and i'll never lose that silly grin...). you too can achieve independance from the p2p addiction that's over running the world. it's a disease, datas. admitting it is the first step to recovery. my program to cure Musicollectivegigglyfilepoaching Disorder is as follows:

  1. admit your addiction
  2. go to liquor store / see dealer
  3. listen to the last screwy mp3 you downloaded over and over and over (an f'd up shpongle track did the trick for me)
  4. destroy your p2p terminal
  5. burn the room / house / apt
  6. welcome to [ms] mate, don't take any ____ from these _____

Re: SoulSeek

I still use it to get sets that are not up for sale, shared files and things of the sort. It is good for what we called back in the 80's "underground" things that you can not get at any store

Re: SoulSeek

I find Soulseek really annoying - You start to d/l a set, you get a 1.2 k d/l speed 'cos the person you're d/ling from limits their outgoing bandwidth, then when you're half way there they go offline for a couple of months. AudioGalaxy ruled in that respect.

Plus, the IRAA are starting to look at Soulseek so its days have got to be numbered, and they're going to be looking at prosecuting people who are using it.

You must have some issues with 2p2, seems a bit harsh to me.....

But if it was a problem for you its good that you stoped.

SoulSeek does not offer anything is the people that use its server to share files!

Re: SoulSeek

Let the RIAA sue me...

Court is in session:

"Is this (insert so and so's producer's name) song". "Yes it is". "Did you download it off Soulseek". "No". "Then how do you explain it's existence on your harddrive?" "(insert so and so's producer name here) uploaded it to me via Soulseek". "So the actual producer of the song sent it to you?". "Yes... Anything else fuckwit?"
