Ditto…I missed the whole "the list is up," "the list is down," but I found it really interesting. I just (1) don't have enough friends who love music as much as I, and (2) can't imagine such an organized approach. It's a cool idea. Wish my friends would do it [that, of course, would involve more than a couple of them listening to internet radio.]

I'm attempting eDonkey, but the selection sucks, and it takes ages. although I'm getting a ton of Cure…I guess eDonkey users are 80's goth fans, explaining why I can't get any new bands.

EXACTLY. Kind of pisses me off, in fact.

Bowie already cashed out by securitizing his future royalties. What does he care if copyright exists anymore?

unfortunately because of shitty dial-up, downloading songs from a website is nearly impossible, and sometimes IS impossible.

Isn't the p2p speed just the same?

I don't really care about the speed, but no, actually speed is much better on p2p, because you can download from more than one source at a time. the big thing with p2p is that it gets saved to my computer, download during more than one session online, and I can listen to it on the player of my choice, where as if I download from a site, if I get disconnected, as I ever so often am, all is lost

You don't have to download to an MP3 it to hear it.
