Winmx Is Gone!

[thezzapper]

Well, I woke up this morning to some awful news. It appears that Winmx has ceased operation due to pressure from the recording industry here in the states. After being on Winmx for close to 5 years, I am depressed as hell, in shock, & angry. It is very difficult for me to say more about my feelings at this moment.

Doesn't really matter to me. WinMX sucked with its extremely low download speeds.

Winmx ruled! It kept all the idiots off, which is why it survived. The "Open Nap" was so fucking cool. You could find anything you wanted. Bummer to hear this.

Re: Winmx Is Gone!

Re: Winmx Is Gone!

I never realized that people still used that worthless piece of shit program. Although I did get the new Backstreet Boys album from there. Pretty tight I must say.

Re: Winmx Is Gone!

I haven't used MX in years, I hardly ever use SS either. Like Pickle said, [ms] supplies me with all the crack I can handle, and if not, don't even get me started on Proton/Frisky/etc.

Re: Winmx Is Gone!

For some weird reason I woudl use winmix for like 2 mins and my compuetr would carp out each time. So slsk was the choice for even thought the serach engine isn't as tight as it used to be.

Re: Winmx Is Gone!

I have not found soulseek that great either, there just seems to be massive q's for everything. Lots of people rave about it so maybe I have the wrong one or something as there are lots of variations. Could someone clarify the best one to use please?
