It and other Modern programs like it are like that.  And my experience was it would take me over a week to download one things on these newest types of these programs >.<\n\nTherefore,.. I avoid it,..  I suggest you hope there is a video version of it you can listen to instead on http://www.youtube.com  but that might not be convient for what requirements you are trying to fill.

the best p2p is "Ares" and thats why:\n-connectes to all the biggest networks (like gnutella) at once\n-fastest downloads\n-download speed isnt affected by the fact that you're downloading more than one file.\n-completely free\n-no ad/spy-ware\n-no "pro" payable mode\n-no ads/popups\n-small installation (requires around 2mb)\n-integrated media player (with palylists and all other stuff)\n-integrated movie preview

I think LimeWire Free is good but what is intersting about Shareware programs is that you can download there trial versions then do a search for the paid version, in this case Limewire Pro, download it and install.  You would think they would look out for that.  But as in who is faster there is a lot to that.  What speed your box is at, How many people are on there network.  But they all use "Swarm Technology" now so they does make Limewire, in my opion faster.

oh man your stupid! you ADVERTISE that you use p2p? holy crap! what is wrong with you?!?!

Well, dont know if I cant explain it... but here is a shot::: BitTorrents are a type of file to share stuff (legal and illegal stuff) through internet, using a BitTorrent program to actually locate the file start the downloading process... it is faster than a regular download and it is safer (less viruses for PCs) than other methods or softwares for sharing files over the net...

If you don't want torrents, you're pretty much out of luck...\n\nYou see, if you run a website, it's pretty easy to track down who's providing the service... and sue/arrest them.\n\nThat's why almost all copyright infringement has gone peer-to-peer.

Limewire is the best P2P program. As for "websites", there aren't any good ones that offer good music.

Download a P2P program...there are tones of them out there!

I love limewire, it's one of the best & my favorite programs for downloading music. Those are types of file sharing networks that you & others are connected to as you share your mp3 etc. A gnutella network I believe is the term...Do you know about browsing host?

BitTorrent is the name of a peer-to-peer (P2P) file distribution client application and also of a file sharing protocol, both of which were created by programmer Bram Cohen. BitTorrent is designed to distribute large amounts of data widely without incurring the corresponding consumption in costly server and bandwidth resources. CacheLogic suggests that BitTorrent traffic accounts for ~35% of all traffic on the Internet,[1] while other sources are skeptical.[2]\n\nThe original BitTorrent application was written in Python. Its source code, as of version 4.0, has been released under the BitTorrent Open Source License (a modified version of the Jabber Open Source License). There are numerous compatible clients, written in a variety of languages and running on a variety of computing platforms.

I'm not sure if your peer to peer site is legal or not, but I highly recommend iTunes. All you have to do is to download the interface, which doesn't take a lot of effort. They have a wide selection that is updated lightning speed, and it is as legal as it gets. It is typically 99 cents per song, and full albums vary. The music you download is not just for an iPod; it can also be downloaded onto an mp3 player, and burned to a CD. Try it! :D

Simply put P2P is a program that connectes with other P2P applications on the Internet and can communicate (upload/download) files from each other.\n\nNapster created the first P2P (Peer to Peer) application and also made it very popular, to the extent that the whole Media Industry got so scared that they got it shutdown.\n\nWhat it does is as soon as you start the application it indexes all the shared files on your computer. And when some one searches for any file that request comes to each computer running the application. The app responds if it has the file on the PC or not. If it is present then the user can download it from that computer to his. And since there can be multiple copies of the same file on different computers, it is actually broken and downloaded from various computers in part.\n\nThere are lot of protocols and applications for the same. Some applications can work with multiple protocols, and others with only one.\n\nShareaza (http://www.shareaza.com) is one Open source that supports multiple protocols (eDonkey, Gnutella). It also supports bit-torrent. \nOthers applications include Kaaza.\n\nThere are other applications of P2P apart from sharing files. One of them is SETI@Home which started in 1999 and used millions of computers to process the data.

Ignore the nay-sayer commentary above - the main critics are usually those who are simply too stupid to use the software safely. Limewire is just as safe as any other p2p application - just always exercise a little common sense.\n\nAnyhow, two things to check.\n*make sure your firewall is not blocking it\n*check your filter settings to see what is being hidden in your searches\n\napart from these, it may well be that there ARE NO search results for the file you were tying to locate...some things are just not very commonly shared\n\nOh- word of advice - if you can get hold of Limewire Pro, you'll be much happier :)
