Incidentally, what does this work when IT sleeps or something ? I swear I didn't have this or that and in the morning it shows I do. I kniow the difference between exiting and minimizing, I mean things just seem to show up at times.

Incidentally if you want Bearshare go to oldversion dot com and get Bearshare lite 5.2.5, that's the version to have. It nags for an upgrade, and sometimes even closes when you say no, but you just restart it and it is fine.

Commendable, but I paid for mine. Of all the albums or CDs I bought over the years to get one song MULTIPLE TIMES. I paid.

My issue with buying cd's from the store, is that 90% of the time, there's only one or two (or in the rare case, 4 or more) songs that I like.

Or, as Termyn8or said, buying several different albums, and getting the same song on them 5+ times - Aerosmith is probably the worst when it comes to this. (I can list 4-5 albums where the same song appears on all 5)

As a side note, I prefer Usenet access myself. I've found a BOATLOAD of B-sides/rarities on there that haven't been released.

I never used Limewire.  I always heard it dumped a lot of spyware on your computer.  I don't have an issue paying a dollar a song.

I bet the network is still up, it's just the site/brandname they ever manage to kill.
Personally, I don't bother....you can easily get stuff from youtube. If youtube doesn't have it, google a torrent.

Status: offline 		Walmart downloads used to be 89 cents, but I think they're up to 99 now.

I had seen some ads for Rhapsody, and they're offering a free trial and then $9.99/mo., and I thought this meant you could download from there, but since their wording is "listen" to as many as you want, as many times as you want, but they don't say anything about downloading, so I'm assuming they charge to do that. I was wondering if anyone here had experience with that site?

There is a lot of music out there that isn't available on the iTunes or Walmart download site, which is why I like to search around the p2p sharing sites. Some people have put their old and sometimes obscure vinyl out there, stuff that is just not available to purchase, or is even available on CD,..... and I have what I consider an amazing mp3 player, lol.

I'm sleeping just fine at night.
