help, must feed my mp3 habit. I can't find anything in Napster anymore. Can anyone give me some clues on new and interesting ways to search...

i'm looking for all sorts of music, have been on a motown kick lately. (al green rocks)

thanks to Napster, my mp3 directory now has aprox. 2500 files. I can't stop downloading! :eek:

Try looking up the album name and then the track number... it works. Just stay away from the track/artist names and you can find all kinds of fun things.

WinMX - You can connect to multiple servers at once. Much better chances of finding stuff...(though most of the MusicCity servers that do connect to MX are empty...

yeah, music city has their own program now.

My method for finding specific things is to enter both the artist, and the title. More files usually turn up that way than when you only enter one field.

I use oth.net to scan for possible tracks (I'm mostly into collecting live mixes and they usually come in 1-2 parts). Once I know what's out there, I look on Napster for individual filenames. Works out much better than say searching for "digweed live" on napster.
