Ya'll need to put me on, torrent sites damn near dead. Music collection is suspect as fukk right now.

A russian tracker called rutracker.org is amazing.

It never went away except on here for obvious reasons officer

I subscribe to Spotify, but I still download shyt and put it on my SD card for the whip

 

[J-Fire]

Never stopped downloading. No music on my phone, I use my ipod in the car, at the gym, when I'm traveling. I don't listen to enough new music to justify spending a dime on a streaming service

spottily has free on demand on desktop/laptop and I think ipad as well.

Just found that out recently cause I stopped using spotify when my free trials ran out a couple of years ago, lol.

In the past I found a lotta shyt by simply searching for “xxxxxxx.rar”

Downloading is wack though... if you like something why not buy a copy of the CD or the wax??? Support the artist. I buy all my shyt now. If I find something new I listen on YouTube and then cop it...

Remember oink? Waffles.fm?

That good 128 kbps quality.

i noticed people dont care/notice quality really. my one homie primarily downloads music from youtube

and when i scoffed at the quality he's running with he just didnt care and said he dont notice anything wrong with it

I only listen to albums once or twice anyway...

fukk I look like listening to the same shyt over and over...

And the ear can't tell the difference anyway unless you got $500 headphones with an amp...

Most of yall listening to shyt on shytty ass BEATS or pods or whatever the fukk...

I can listen to a shytty 128kbps or a not as shytty but still shyt 320kbps rip with apple earbuds and EASILY tell the difference.

This ain’t 2001... if you aren’t getting lossless rips in 2018 you are missing out.

"Its the newwww *DJ scratch* everlasting bass *dj scratch* style!"

Hated those fukking tags right when the verse kicked in. That's when you had to keep diggin to get a clean version.

Funny when nikkas BLAST low bit rate rips in their expensive ass car stereos.

It’s also funny when people bought up those shytty beats headphones and thought that those magically enhanced their 128kbps listening experience

File sharing was the shyt back in the early 00s... I remember downloading games and some more shyt with bearshare, kazaa, and limewire.

Tying up the phone line overnight just to wake up to those old 90s hip hop joints you could only buy at Sam Goody or FYE if they even had it... growing up in the early 00s was great man
