P2P Downloading - WinmxI use Winmx which is one of the oldest peer to peer download sites on the web. A couple of years ago they upgraded their software and started a fee based service. They shut down their networks to the hundreds of thousands of people running their old free software which created a user uproar and a 'workaround' rebellion. You can still run Winmx if you work at it. Go to the link below and download the old freeware version. There is a chance that it may block you from 'finding their network'. If that happens leave a message in the comment section here and we'll see if my users and I can get you running. Normally I wouldn't recommend that you download software that may or may not work. However, in this case, it makes sense because the value is so incredibly strong.

Kazza Scanner
The first thing to know about this product is that it has no affiliation with Kazza. I don't know why they chose that name because that product is so full of spyware and other garbage that it will ruin your system, so never download the P2P Kazza client. Now, back to the real reason for me writing this post... Kazza scanner is a small application that watches your shared folder for new downloads then picks it out and moves the file to wherever you keep your songs. This way, you set up a working folder for all the incoming garbage and a separate folder for your music archive. It is a better way of doing things because you can keep your music archive free of all the incomplete files that never finish downloading. It accomplishes a task that most people do by hand so it's a worthwhile program. I recommend this freeware but I do wish they would change the name.
