Just a quick question for mac users, how the fuck can you play wmv and wma files since those are really popular?

transmission is better than tomato torrent

hmmm, have to try that, haven't heard of it before. My friend had this search engine downloaded that looked through all the torrent sites to find the file that you were looking for but i forgot the name of it, it was named something like "scale" or "sear", don't remember, something with an "s'' in it i thought....

The Pirate Bay will have all your torrent needs, especially as mainstream as it's getting with mainstream consumers.

Funny thing is, Limewire is more useable on mac's than it is on PC's. The common spyware/adware found in fake downloads don't really affect mac's operating system...

Also opening mp3's on mac will never generate a system message to type your password in!

Also to note, a handful of the albums found on the pirates bay "rar'd" rather than "zipped" and this is a great utility to "unrar" them. www.unrarx.com/

I use bittorrent for full albums (isohunt), but if I just want to hear a single I use google. Just type in the artist and song name followed by the word "zshare". Click through the top 5 finds and you should usually get a solid download
