Downloading CD's

Yeah, so I download music, I'm a horrible person.

Anyway. I just got DSL........ score! Now I'm looking for the easiest way to download whole CD's........ In MP3 format. I don't want ISO's, and I don't want Torrents. 160-192kbps MP3's, please..........

I usually go on Limewire and hunt for the individual songs, but there's gotta be an easier way......... anyone?

Torrents and ISO's are just too damn big.

i wish there was an easier way to get whole cd's....but i dont think there is unless you pay for it through itunes or something. I just look up a list of songs on a cd i want and download them all

Well torrents are you best option, but sense you've ruled them out, use soulseek. More often than not, the sharer will have the songs in folders by album. So you just right click on the song and select or something to that effect. Thats the only way that I know of besides torrents.

Well considering all the mp3s in torrents and ISO's are the same size as they would be if you downloaded them off Limewire or something else, you are probably shit out of luck.

nooooooooo fucking way.

ISO's go for 4-500+ MB's because it's full quality digital CD audio........... at 192kbps MP3, I get a full hour CD at roughly 60MB's, and I can't tell the difference.

I'm gonna go look for that DC++ thing, never heard of it.

Someone wanna show me how to use DC++ ? It looks sick, but it's being a bitch about acually downloading anything.

the easiest way to get full cd's, but generally only indie music is available i think

downloading a 15 song album, all in MP3 format, would be exactly the same as downloading each of those songs individually off of limewire/wimmx/whatever. torrents are great, torrentspy has so much stuff.

ill be super rich and own mt.hood and let everybody from ns ski for free... except freezed -hoodratz47

Usenet or irc are your best bet. As usual, you'll have to google for info b/c I'm not really into ripping bands off.

the soulseek website tells you everything you need to do add some friends to your list and search things be patient give it a minute or two then there will be gray and black results black results go fastest but gray will work but just take longer

fuck punctuation i just didnt feel like using commas
