Not to burst your bubble. But I have used Winmx before and it sucks. You can't find shit on there and people on there don't share shit.

Mix tapes.

Check out the Mercuryserver room, plenty of people in there to share with. 8)

Re: Soulseek alternatives..........

slsk is just fine... I've always been able to find whatever I was looking for in there. Ok, almost everything.

eMule is good as well.

Re: Soulseek alternatives..........

i use winmx to share filles true, there are not many users who actualy share filles, but i usualy find one in the end

suprnova.org!

Re: Soulseek alternatives..........

Does your laptop have a new p4 cpu with hyperthreading on it? Soulseek does not play nicely with hyperthreading CPUs, but this is easily corrected by assigning soulseek CPU affinity.

ctrl-alt-delete -> processes -> right click on soulseek.exe -> set affinity -> pick either cpu (check mark one of them)

well I recommend you to try e-mule if soulseek doesn't works on your computer.

Re: Soulseek alternatives..........

use WASTE... couple of my co workers developed it.

f.

Anything for a mac?

Hey guys, I've given Ares a quick go... amazing amount of stuff on there!

Shits all over slsk except that theres not as many DJ sets, but in terms of singles you'll return more results than even Kazaa seems to ever did.

It downloads very fast and from multiple sources.

I highly recommend it, theres 2 adware apps bundled with them but you're free to deselect them when you install the software.

Check it out dudes!

Re: Soulseek alternatives..........

For me, problem with soulseek is that it is too slow. And most users are unavailable for download. There should definitely be more websites that have hosting of mixes with lots of bandwidth out there for us EDM fans. Makes it alot easier to hear the music that way.

Re: Soulseek alternatives..........

morpheus... although it hesitates a lot, but it has similar users as slsk.

Re: Soulseek alternatives..........

does anyone know some good rooms to enter on slsk? Also, I am kind of confused on the rooms. once you are in a room, are you allowed to download those users music from that room? Or do they still have to let you.

Re: Soulseek alternatives..........

Here are some alternatives;

64 for windows;
