I bet this has been ask many times but i'm too lazy to look. What are some good programs that i can use to Dl music. And maybe i'm asking to much but i would like to type in a artist name and be able to Dl their albums as whole things and not just song by song.

Torrents


Just find a program like bitorrent or bitcomet

then go to a torrent website, search, and download

Programs:
Bitcomet or uTorrent for Windows
Azureus for Mac

All three have selective downloading, so if you want the whole album you can grab that or choose just certain songs that are in the torrent.

Sites:
Mininova
Pirate Bay

If you're having trouble finding something, google "blah blah torrent" where "blah blah" is the artist/album/whatever.

Checkout Transmission for Mac, much lighter footprint than Azureus.

Doesn't have selective downloading, though. Think Azureus is the only one that does. I have heard good things about Transmission, though.

You mean selecting single songs out of an album torrent? Yeah, it has that.

Yeah, that's what I meant. Well weird, I guess they've updated since the reviews I read. Cool, I'll check it out!

its kinda hard to explain. think of it as a giant forum. people will post files and such, all hosted on the news server (which is why you have to pay). you can either search through specific groups (think forums again), or most of the time there is a tool that will auto-search all relevant groups for what you're looking for.
