Morpheus is working fine, but I have found that it doesn't have that great of a selection of songs. It has 90% of the songs that I usually want, but for the other 10% I used to rely on WinMX. But it seems WinMX is not XP compatable, meaning I'm out of another P2P File Sharing program.

Can anyone suggest a good P2P File Sharing program that XP supports?

<< Since you mention songs, I recommend Audiogalaxy. >>


Installing AudioGalaxy at the moment. Will try eDonkey next.

EDIT: Didn't read all the way through. WinMX should work with WinXP though. It's works perfectly fine for me.

Dirrect Connect is a superior program.
Also, WinMX, Edonkey and Bearshare.

I wish napster was still alive :(

What if you install winmx and right click on it to set the compalibility mode to win98?

I'll have to second Direct Connect. Since installing it, I haven't used WinMX once.

audiogalaxy is a pain sometimes.. but.. they have everything.. and if what yer lookin for is "not allowed to be downloaded" theres always a version of the song thats titled differently....

Regarding Direct Connect, am I doing something wrong or can you only search the server you're connected to? Which is usually only a couple hundred people... so unless you're looking for something really trendy you're not going to find it. Correct?

blubster and songspy are good for songs. i recommend blubster first (its an exact napster clone) and songspy second (because my university was able to block it after a few days)
