Well I didn't pay of it the first time, but that would have been an advantage if I had. :-).

The thing about the Torrents is that you can get entire collections at incredible speeds.

I "rebuilt" my beatles collection too a while back. my average speed was over 150K/sec and got 4 gigs of music in one file.

I love it

Torrentspy.com was recently shut down, but Demonoid.com is still up.But unless you're a registered member, you're limitd to what you can DL.
Most of the stuff I download on LimeWire is so old that the douchebags who do that stuff don't target it as vehicles for spreading malicious content.They pray on the "too good to be true" surfers. Expensive programming, new songs, early releases, stuff like that. Or at least it seems that way from my end. I rarely get a song that does something suspicious, and my listing contain very little "junk". I use the filter, but that works for me because I'm looking for older, very specific songs.

I should get into the torrent systems again. I'm more PC savy then LimeWire. Right now though, it's working well for the purposes I use it.
