Soulseek is alright for audio, I tend to use newsgroups for everything though.

http://utorrent.com/
download, install
open "torrents" that you download from sites such as mininova.org, thepiratebay.org, torrentspy.org
these connect you to people's computers, to certain directories, and you download whatever the torrent is for
music, pr0n, movies, games, it's a magical world
if you need help, ask odiumjunkie
i didn't like soulseek, personally

Soulseek has many hard to find tracks that you simply won't find on any other p2p network.

As everyone else has said, BitTorrent. Usenet is awesome too but you have to pay for an account. Finally, DC++ is where I turn when I can't find a file anywhere else.

Soulseek is brilliant. It sucks ass to start with, but as soon as you get talking to people and you get added to their lists your sorted.
slsk is a haven for psy & psydub/ambient chill .. has plenty of dubs for us dnb junkies (that is if you've got shit to trade).
As soon as you've built up a decent library of music, slsk becomes much easier to use as people will add you to their lists so you get much faster speeds

I always use lime wire even though it does completely ruin the computer.All I have to do is reformat the computer and its good as new again and that only takes like a half hour so sometimes I think its worth it as long as I was able to get allot of stuff before it freezes.I wish I could figure out all the torrent sites,every time I try they I get a ton of stuff and when I go to watch it,I can never find the file extension I need to play it

As far as torrents are concerned, have you tried Oink's Pink Palace?
http://oink.me.uk
I know it sounds little fruity, but its simply the best site out there for music...
Its invite only, but people have invites to spare... In fact, I got my invite through a post here in the pub... I'm sure if you let people know you need one, someone is sure to hook you up..

All you really need is ffdshow and xvid codec, It's hardly rocket science.
If you use Gspot it will tell you precisely what codecs you need to play the file.

Join the shroomery room! Just scroll to the bottom of the list and we should be there. If you don't see it, right click in the rooms window and select "create room". Type in "Shroomery". When you are in the room, right click in the chat area and select "toggle room autojoin". This will log you in automatically when you start soulseek.

Soul Seek for music is great. You need to do some reading to set it up. Its a community and people can be bitchy about alot of things.
Also like others have said Onik is great for music. Its a private community you will need an invite. I have some. If you take the time to learn bit torrent and your mom will let you be a seeder as long as you can. Im willing to throw an invite your way.
If you want to learn about p2p and need guides check out
www.slyck.com
They have pleanty of guides there. The fourms have great information. I suggest you start there. Do yourself a favor and learn several forms of P2P. If you do you will always find what you want when ever you want.

I used to download songs with kazaa, then I downloaded albums with IRC, now I download entire artist's discographies with bittorrent. I love technology . I guess the next step is to download all of 'Rock'. heh.
Honestly, there's NO need to pay for anything (and if you pay, it's either crap or WAY expensive to get a decent amount of songs). Your options are either don't pay a cent and find a good way to download, or to pay, but pay out the ass for not as much. Like I said, bittorrent is the easiest/fastest way to do it. I can literally start downloading everything 5 different artists have ever made in the amount of time i can hold my breath, probably more artists. That, and the only thing limiting how fast I download is my own download bandwidth, not some server's. Rant rant, blah blah.
BitTorrent forever (or whatever's next)!!

I need to check this out. I used to hang out at the shroomery room at slsk regularly. My system crashed recently and I lost everything. I actually came to this thread b/c I was wondering if the shroomery room was still around. Hook me up with an invite?
