Best and easiest file sharing program?

i'd assume so... I was banned from the UM hub a while ago(paladin one) for some stupid reason or another so i'm not sure about the size for that... but metalgods rarely has a large userbase... Grindcore.no-ip.org and Hpn3.no-ip.org:23 are the ones I use, at peak times they both have 1000 or more users... plus if you can't find something in the grind hub it usually isn't on DC yet(for metal)
 
I don't like Soulseek, I very much prefer having an audio preview for songs.

I use Ares, it's decent

Yeah....I have all three of those on my list. I just can't check out the UM hub, so I was wondering.

Okay....I think I'm done. I had forgotten Grindcore and HPN1 were like three times the size of MetalGods, and I don't have to go through the obnoxious registration MetalGods has now.

And by the way, thanks for recommending StrongDC. The multi-source downloading really kicks ass.

I use Soulseek. Most of the metal hubs on DC++ mandate that you have atleast a few hundred mp3's before they'll let you in. But I only have about 40 mp3's, as I buy all my albums, so I've never had luck with DC++.

Get your cd's and rip them onto your computer. Then put them in the mp3 folder you are sharing from and voila, you can download :)
 
Well.....you'd still have to have a really small hardrive for it to be an issue. Grindcore.no-ip is 5gigs, I think, and that's more than you'll most likely ever need. But I guess if you have that tiny a hardrive, then you just do.
 
soulseek is quite good as mentioned for black metal -but ive never had a problem with finding death or thrash metal either (doom on the other hand...)
dc++ is the supreme god of filsharing from what i hear, but i havent been able to use it just because i have a shit small hardrive (3 gig....i rarely have 1 gig of free space though :()

Go into the doom room and do a room search. I've got no worries finding doom, but obscure thrash is a bitch to come by.
