Title says it, sorry if its a repost, I searchbarred and nothing came up . I just wanted to know what the best sites were for torrenting songs, cause I'm tired of paying for shit on iTunes. I have used FrostWire and that works pretty good, but it makes my computer really slow and gave it a virus so I had to uninstall it. Thanks.

Download BitTorrent.

Get torrents off the pirate bay and kick ass torrents. Make sure the sources are trusted and check the comments.

Happy torrenting!

step 1: remove all stupid torrent programs like frostwire

step 2: download 7zip

step 3: open google

step 4: type in (name of artist, album or song) and then "mediafire"

step 5: open the best link, and download the zip file

step 6: unpack the mp3's into itunes

best way to get music. most of it comes with information, album covers and cd quality stock. when i lost my entire music library, i downloaded 700 songs in one night by doing this, easiest, highest quality source i've ever used.

thepiratebay.org  <URL



Search the searchbar (duh) for something you want to download at the main screen. It can be music,
software, movies, games, etc. and click on a link to the item you want to download. Try and download from the torrents with the most seeders.Trusted users will have a pink or green skull and crossbones next to their name and will almost never pose any issues with viruses. It's always best to check the comments though; people can inform you on the saftey/quality of a torrent.

Click "download torrent" and a window should pop up asking you which files you want to download, and with what program (choose bit torrent). After your files are downloaded they should be saved in your "downloads" folder and ready to be imported into iTunes!

Here's a video if you need some more help-

^that video shows you how to do it with movies. It's pretty much the same thing with music, just easier. Once you have the torrent downloaded, find where the file is saved. If you can't figure it out, right click the download link in bittorrent and select "open containing folder" and it should show you where it is.

Open up iTunes, click file>openfolder then select the folder you want to add.

It's a simple process after your first few torrents.

Media fire is where it's at. And youtube to mp3 converters are sick when you want a live track that you can't find.

thepiratebay is where it's at. once you use it a few times you'll be a master.

also when you are searching for your songs you'll see on the right there are two columns "SE" (seeders) and "LE" (leechers)...you typically want to roll with the one with the most seeders as it is most commonly the more popular/better file, so click on the "SE" and it will order them from highest amount to lowest.

For the love of jesus don't use video to mp3 unless you can't find the track you want ANYWHERE.

The sound quality is ALWAYS shit.

Mediafire works really well to download songs and albums... and if you're looking for some sick music you should check out the kollection (www.thekollection.com). It has really legit music ranging from Indie.. Dubstep... Electro/Trance... Mixtapes and more.
