Title: Re: LIMEWIRE shut down Post by: Samdy Gray on Tuesday, December 21, 2010, 13:17:49 I stopped using p2p years ago too. Never really felt comfortable with allowing people a direct connection to my PC.
I've heard *ahem* there are filesharing forums that will provide links for you to download whole albums, films, TV series etc. from RapidShare (and other hosting sites) these days. Title: Re: LIMEWIRE shut down Post by: Arriba on Tuesday, December 21, 2010, 14:03:12 i get my stuff from warez

Not that I would condone this of course... ;-) But getting a 30 day unlimited access to Rapidshare or similar could provide you with a lot of downloads in one go very easily and quickly. Torrents are of course the other commone one, and finally Usenet/Newsgroup services.
