Hello Everyone,

I've got an Imac g4 with OSX and a 64kb ISDN connection.
I am looking for a decent file sharing program to get lots of nice free albums. Have tried Limewire and it is slow and frustrating (I set it off running to get the 8 Mile album over three nights and only got haf the album). Any suggestions?

Also I've Norton Internet security and have found no-one can get mp3 files from my hard drive (tried disabling the firewall)

Binger:devil

Unfortunately, Macs right now are very limite din file sharing choices. You might want to try Acquisition (http://www.acquisitionx.com/), as I have heard good things about it. Another choice that works quite well for a large files (read: full albums) is eDonkey. A good client for eDonkey is mldonkey (http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/mldonkey/).

Definitely.
If you're looking for albums you gotta go Direct Connect. For single songs you might want Aqcuisition. Good luck!
