WinMX is dead. I never found it that useful anyway tbh.

I remember it being a total wasteland of perpetually queued users and not much content when I tried it several years ago. The RIAA could shut them down and it wouldn't make a differece.

Not much of a p2p for my purposes...soulseek blows it's doors off. Hey, look at me, I sound like siouxmoux.

Soulseek is filesharing software. Ad free and spyware free, and a great source for obscure music, if you can put up with the ever present leeches who populate it.
Download the software here:

I love slsk, and am amazed at how much obscure stuff is on it, if you keep searching.
I didn't know WinMX was still around ? We used to use it in 2003; I remember lots of long, long queues, but you'd eventually get what you were looking for. I found limewire to be a mess, not user-friendly at all, had no obscure music to speak of, and hardly any action! Our fave was kazaa, though--they had it all.

WinMX still works but you have to edit your Hosts file or something to direct it to the appropriate server.

There's no question that no one even comes close to soulseeker when it comes to old school music, but winmx has some stuff that others don't have. I found out that Riaa or whatever the hell the name of that pussy site is, is always trying to crash winmx. Looks like I just have to stay one step ahead. Thanks for all of your help.

Wasn't Winmx shut down? I could never find anything off there, and whenever I did it wouldn't download. It's gone off my computer and I can't say I really miss it. Now audiogalaxy on the other hand. Now there's a program I'm praying every day for a miracle to happen for it to come back.
