|  good P2P program... soulseek client?
hey...
im looking for a good mac program for downloading music P2P for a friend... i use soulseek myself, and i like it alot (ive never gotten a virus, unlike with limewire) so ideally, is there a mac client that connects to the soulseek network? (other than solarseek?)
or is there any other program that anyone recommends for a mac for downloading music?
thanks a lot  - RK

thanks a lot - RK | The only good P2P program is a deleted P2P program.
Besides just use PirateBay and Azereus to download albums instead.

LMAO, if you get viruses from Limewire, you need to reconsider how you go on the internet. I've never gotten a virus from it.

i just prefer the simplicity of soulseek, and its network... no ads, no bs files/viruses... i just like it better
does aaaaanyone know of a program like that, but for mac!? haha thanks - RK

Wrong, a good virus scanner will always scan downloaded things and scan whenever you run a program or file.

eh... i have nod32, which is generally regarded to be a pretty darn good one, and it only caught it when i either tried to open the file, or like hours later when it scanned...
but thats besides the point... i still need a better program than limewire for mac... : / - RK
