Looking for a good program to d/l music and files.

I`ve been using Limewire Pro but I want to try something else. Mostly for downloading games and things. What do you use?

Torrents. OiNK for music.

This is a respectable site. Lets not talk about where you steal your crap from.

For when I am purchasing games, I check on Steam to see if they have the game on there. It`s quick, easy and they use PayPal. It`s where I got Garry`s Mod, which is a cool physics sandbox, a mod of Half-Life 2.

Just because it uses a P2P protocol doesn`t mean its "stolen." Let`s not take an overly elitest route here.

Don`t get me started about Steam, I bought a used copy of HL-2 Episode 1 from a guy who plays a lot of games. Went to install it and lo and behold since he has registered the keycode you can`t use it again. He had no idea and since he doesn`t have his receipt I would have to pay Valve $10 for a new code. I only paid $12 for the disc so no savings going this route.



Just do a search on Steam and you`ll see how many irate people are out there who hate it. It`s just a scam for Valve to grab as much money as they can. I won`t buy any more of their products and I was a faithful HL and HL-2 fan. If your ISP has a good newsgroups server why not use that? I love using Newsbin and there are other good programs out there that allow you to easily get what you`re looking for from the Usenet.
