Alternatives to Limewire

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
What can I use instead of Limewire for downloading the odd track.

I dont need it to download albums or anything, I just download the torrent. Just Limewire was handy for a single track.

    Frostwire accesses the same network Limewire does. ie, a shite one so don't bother with that. Soulseek has the best selection out of anything, even hard to find things.

    Although you could just use a torrent client that doesn't suck (ie, uTorrent) :razz: When you click the .torrent link on a website, it opens in uTorrent and in the 'Save' box it has a checlist of the files in the torrent. That way you can just download one track from an album or whatever.
