I use Audio Galaxy to share my music and download new stuff. It really Rocks. You can download it here. Give it a try... you wont use anything else no more, when talking 'bout MP3.

Cheerss,

I use audiogalaxy for music (www.audiogalaxy.com) and limewire for vids (www.limewire.com)

However limewire and the gnutella network I have found to be slower than kazaa etc.

Limey. Once I got it configured LimeWire seemed to be pretty fast for me. Doesn't really touch my system resources, but I don't have a super slow system either. Gonna check out Audiogalaxy. What the hell is EDONKEY? HA HA HA HA

Although I've yet to find a decent gui frontend....

Direct Connect? You mean hook up to my PC via your PC in the UK and transfer files??? How would someone do that? In Linux?

Audio Galaxy for mp3
LimeWire for rest.

How can you make audio galaxy run? My just delete my account.txt (?) every time I try to connect (and of course tell me I don't have the file...)

Is there are another sharing-music tool?

limewire is just one of the (poorest) gnutella clients around, all usnig the same network of course. http://gtk-gnutella.sf.net

You need to put your user name in the first line of account.txt not email(as stated in the install instruction)

then it should work

Half_Elf · 05-27-2002, 11:28 PM

Hum well... Pretty BAD install file... I will try it

Try http://www.edonkey2000.com/downloads.html
and don't forget to update the server.met file.

I use it with Linux and Windows and it works really fine for Vids and Progs
