    Default DJ Download

    Im just curious - Im working at (yet another) new club... I went up to the DJ to request a few songs. He said he doesnt have them but can download them... like 10 minutes later when I went on stage he had the songs...

    What is this system everyones using (and i dont want to hear computer, i know that!)

    Is he just using iTunes and paying for songs or some other free download system? Just asking because I want to download some of the songs and it seemed so fast and easy for him... compared to sharebear and others that suck.

    Thanks much!

    He could be using iTunes (.99¢), or Limewire (free), or any other number of programs? I happen to like Limewire for free stuff.

    I also like iTunes because you can "preview" the song before you buy it, and the sound quality is awesome. And it's super-fast!!!

    The only surefire way ya have of knowing what your DJ is using at the club to download music is to ask him.

    limewire rocks.... just like you said... name practically any song... a few minutes later you're playing it... it's like the golden age of napster has returned....

    The best part of limewire is you can search for then download the pro version...

    Limewire is great if you want spam, pop-ups, and commercial type music. DJ's use Soulseek (slsknet.org) free, and spam free, and a great source for underground/club/remixes

    I guess what you are saying is that you don't use Limewire. Which would explain why you think it has spam or pop-ups. You are wrong.

    I've run into more false files or infected files on Limewire than on anything else.
    Soulseek is where it's at if you want good, hard to find music, I've yet to find a false file or a virus and I'm a file sharing maniac

    I've been using limewire for over a year now, and while it isn't perfect it gets the job done. I'll be sure to check out soulseek though, sounds interesting.

    I just downloaded Soulseek and although I see many genres of music I like, it doesn't seem tto be as user-friendly as the share network i currently use and have had no problems with. I suppose I should read a bit more about how it works. Thanks for the tip, though!
