Bearshare = spyware. Try winmx for no spyware.

try downloading torrents they are 100% untrackable. best file sharing yet
www.suprnova.org got to have torrentstorm or another to download the torrents. little tricky to get started but once you do you will not regret it.

I haven't looked in months but you may want to look on mp3.com. They used to have lots of music from wannabe artists; not sure about now.

Well for a MAC, you can get a torrent program from here http://bitconjurer.org/BitTorrent/download.html and use that suprnova.org site. I get a lot of movies and tv shows off of it. Also, Limewire has a MAC version http://www.download.com/LimeWire/300...ml?tag=lst-0-3

If you don't mind paying, use www.itunes.com. It used to be only for the Mac, now PC users can enjoy it. Plus you're guaranteed to get a good quality download. $.99 per song, or sometimes cheaper by the album. Otherwise I still use kazaa lite, or ares. Just started using torrents though, looks like the wave of the future. More dynamic, therefore harder to trace.

yuo can remove spyware via ad-aware. i dont use bearshare anymore because people around here been prosecuted for hosting music. one guy had a 400gig Hitachi deskstar drive and served like 250,000 songs and he got bigtime fines and jailtime. whenever i want music, i just go buy a CD

I use the p2p programs, as well as torrent to preview new music. My downloads actually do lead to purchases, unlike most. Oh, and yes...adaware will remove the spyware, but the program will probably no longer function properly. If you want a better program than limewire, check out kazaa-lite. You can get the version over at oldversion.com

Don't feel so cozy safe using Torrents. I have heard of people getting busted using them, usually for movies.

what about the Kazaa Lite? It's supposed to be fairly ad-ware free.
