Yeah I know there is Soulseek, but lately I've been having huge speed-related problems. I don't like downloading mp3's at 0.8 k/s.
So the question would be : Is there any other alternative where I can find good electronic music? Just like Soulseek is supposed to be.

it only gets slower and the selection fewer from my experience..
Audiogalaxy: out of the question Morpheus: worthless kazaa: insultingly bad slsk: best bet I'm afraid

The speed mostly depends on the speed of the user that you're downloading from.
some of the other networks have multisource-downloading but the electronic music-content isn't as good as SoulSeek's

winmx is quite good, but ONLY if you have broadband and are online most of your life, as the best things are qued to hell and back.

When I try to download a file off someone who seemingly has 60k/s of bandwidth, I still get a download speef of around 0.5 - 1.0 k/s. And after a while I get FAILED.
Argh.
Btw, what about a Direct Connect hub dedicated to IDM et al (for this mb community) ? I think it would be a very good idea...
Anyone?

winmx is far more stable than slsk, but qrtr is right - it's become so popular that everything is queued up to the eyeballs
i'm quite happy just using those two, but i used to love audiogalaxy. ahhhh the days...

Ohh, I miss Audiogalaxy. It had EVERYTHING, never failed. I hated the interface, but it was a bottomless pit of glorious, wonderful piracy. Sigh.

Well that sounds tasty :) Luxury selection or cheap ASDA tin? I hear those Safeway ones make quite a clang.

We already have a private opennap server that members of this message board can use. I sent you an email with some information.
I think setting up a public file sharing server is of limited use - it's best if the community tries to use an existing service. At the moment that's Soulseek, for good or for worse.
