Sorry for this off topic post but I am in dire need of music. My computer just recently just died and I lost all of my mp3s. I had just bought an iPod but lost the music before I was able to transfer it. Does anyone know the addresses of any good DC++ hubs where I could download music? There used to be a hub on my university's network but it was taken down at the end of the semester. Also other than KazaaLite, does anyone know any good, spy-ware free p2p programs to use? Thanks and sorry again for making an off-topic post.

Try Blubster. It's music-only, but it's users have a pretty good collection.

BitTorrent is a good way to go.

Just find torrents on places like http://www.suprnova.org

And Usenet is good as well...

And SoulSeek is the best answer to Kazaa IMO
I think its www.slsk.org

I agree with the above, except for Blubster, because it has spyware (last time I checked). Also, if you want to use the Gnutella and Kazaa networks, I suggest using KCeasy instead of KazaaLite. DC++ and Bit Torrent are better still for full albums though. If you go down the public hub list in DC++ you're bound to find a music oriented hub. Even if you don't, any hub with a few terabytes of files should have a fairly good selection of music.

What is the lesson here kids? Spend the extra 40 bucks and back up your data!

Get a Usenet provider, and get all your porn, mp3s/oggs, and and movies from there.

Its glorious.

Blubster stopped with the spyware thing, I think.
