The best P2P on the planet if you're not a mainstream whore (see kazaa and limewire users). This program is more music oriented than anything, although you can download many types of files from it. It will most likely not be targeted by the RIAA because the majority of the users upload and download independent and otherwise obscure material.

I've been using it for over a year and have not yet encountered any spyware, adware, malware, trojans, or corrupted files. It's simply the most intuitive and practical p2p there is, not to mention the fact that it has the widest variety.

I'd like to see you Limewire mainstays downloading full albums at a time. ;)
Slsk user: I just downloaded 3GB worth of full albums of good music today, dude.

Limewire user: Holy shit! I only downloaded 100MB of random songs, mainstream tripe, unproperly tagged music, and corrupted files! WTF are you using?

Slsk user: Not Limewire, that's for sure. *gags with spork* I'm using Soulseek, because it makes pwnsauce out of every other P2P there is!

Get the soulseek mug.
A godsent p2p program (with no spyware and such since it's payed for via donations) in which you can find more rare and harder songs.
I love Slsk. I downloaded Miyavi's new pv :p

A P2P file sharing program, less widespread than kazaa. You can find a lot of good shit on it.
If it's not on Kazaa, you can get it on soulseek.

Soulseek is the greatest p2p program of all time without spyware. In the early days it specialized mostly in Electronic music, though now has a vast majority of musical genres from it's leaders and more well known artists to the extremely underground and obscure. It has many faggots and many cool people on it. Many of the coolest members had long since left. Some still are around. It has chat rooms where most users hang out, no matter how often or not they use the program.

Other names for soulseek: Slsk, SL, Jewseek.
My Soulseek ID: Shadow0fDeath. If you like metal chat with me or swap files. =)

A program that is especially great for finding music you can't find in stores or Limewire, etc.

The chat rooms are filled with pretentious cocksuckers, no fun, and pretty much useless unless you and a party of friends start a room.
Me: hey, can somebody send some CocoRosie? If they've got any?

HipsterFaggot: CocoRosie's new album sucks!!!1
IndieRox: U shouldn't be listening to CoCoRoSiE anyways lol!!!!!
PuNker123: lol n00b.

An example of Soulseek failing.

a once great and little known p2p network specializing in electronic music until someone let hipsters know about it. it's now ruined, rampant with people who think they're hot shit, and it's only a matter of time before the RIAA shuts it down. thanks a lot, indie and rap fans.
man, soulseek used to be awesome, i could go on and get everything and not have to wade through people's crappy collections and emo chat rooms.
