    Kazaa Info

    Hi guys, I'm sorry to make a thread about this but is just that I cannot find the right info anywhere and you might be able to help me.

    What happened with the whole kazaa deal??

    Can I download music from Kazaa legally and free??

    Or do I have to pay a big fine because bands like Metallica who are so "poor" complain about the whole thing??


    Need some info...

    BTW I'm talking about downloading music in the USA, cause in some countries like mine (Vzla) Laws don't apply to anything.... sad/funny

    Thanks

    -Niko

    Kazaa Media Desktop is the latest version. A mate told me it installs spyware and stuff, and I'm pretty certain he's right. Lots of lovely popups too. SInce I re-installed it to grab a few AC/DC song my whole PC's gone dodgy. I think it needs completely reformatting

    I suggest getting Kazaa Lite, its the same as regular kazaa but without the pop-ups or spyware. just do a search for it.

    Thanks for all your replies

    Yeah I had Kazaa Lite... And out of all the programs to download music that I've had (Napster, Kazaa, Imesh, Morpheus, Win Mx, etc) Kazaa Lite has been the best one.

    Are you positive that with Kazaa lite or Win Mx I won't have any problems here?

    Should be no problems, I've been using kazaalite for about 2 years, but to be honest I liked the "old" morpheous format the best.


    You don't expect the RIAA to kick down your door and drag you away in the middle of the night do you?

    I use BitTorrent. SuprNova usually has what I'm looking for. They've got full albums and such if you're looking for music. Another great thing about Torrents: you can probably find what you're looking for by searching Google for "[what you're looking for] Torrent." There are lots of different BT clients out there. I use the official one, but there are better ones out where you can limit your upload speeds and such.

    I don't need anything too fancy, just something that can get me to the sun and back in 5 seconds flat.

    I wanna see a comparison test between the Saleen SR, Lamborghini Gallardo, Ford GT, and Ferrari Challange Stradale. Anyone wanna help me with that? I already know who'd win, though ;).

    If I recall, the new KLite is a pay service. When I reformatted a few weeks ago, it took me a few days to find an old version. www.oldversion.com has just about every free version they made. Screw the system.

    I've had KLite for a while now and never had a problem, I wouldn't worry too much about the RIAA, they won't find you

    Legally, you can download as much music as you want. There is no law against downloading the music. Where you get in trouble is if you turn around and share that music to other people. Downloading is legal, sharing or providing it for other people to download is illegal.

    I heard that they started looking for people who was sharing 1000+ files... That's why I try to keep my shared folder empty. Thanks for the info.

    Nah, I don't expect that, but if they come I'll just show them were my brother sleeps cause I know they will be looking for him

    I recommend u get Kazaa lite like someone else said. No spyware and other crap. Just make sure u go to options and traffic and turn off sharing. u can find it better if u go to msn search and look for it but kazaa.times.lv u can just download it there.
