I got LimeWire the other day, downloaded a few songs I liked, everything was working well. For some reason now whenever I make a search nothing appears, I turned my firewall off, I uninstalled it and installed again, nothing is working. 😕
Can anyone help?

If you want things to work quickly, and want to avoid virii or spyware, if you prefer not compromising your PC to getting convenient free downloads - don't use any P2P client. We used to buy CD's for $16, or €18, or £10. Paying the online price of 99 cents per song, $9.99 for an album - you're still getting a better deal than buying in the shops - and you have no fear of the security risks (or less fear anyway.)

Everyone does it. 😞

LimeWire seems to be working again,😳 I think I'll just stick to that...
Soulseek, from its site, said it is best for music of artists that aren't well known, not mainstream music, which isn't what I want.
But I'll keep SoulSeek, maybe I'll find some use for it, later, thanks anyway. 🙂

I agree. I used to use P2P alot when it became very popular. But, after 3-4 months I had so much garbage on my computer (even with continual clean-up) that I walked away from them for good.

It's not an issue of copyrights. It's whether you like having your computer loused up with virii and spyware.
