I'm downloading non-stop from now until Friday when they have to shut down the server. I hear there are other sites (watching Screen Savers). This is about the biggest thing since the i-opener I hope anyone posts here who finds a Napsterish site.

Will, have you done a search on gnutella yet? It's likely to be Napster's successor, should the RIAA be successful in shutting down Napster.

Kudzu, no this is the first I've heard about it- as soon as my present download is done I'm off to check it out "thanks".

Napster is no loss, they know it and are letting it go. Let the lawyers keep hammering it while everyone else develops other ways to do it. Complain loud about how it's going to kill MP3, make sure to cc:RIAA, Freenet is the way to go.
They are tracking people using Napster, stop using it and use gnu till Freenet gets better (this month).

got to http://gnutella.wego.com/ ,some were on the site I saw an IP address to establish a connection, once you connect the first time you don't have any problems. This web site is pretty busy right now, so are a bunch of the others that have versions of Gnutella, probably all the Napsters. Gnutella 0.56 hasn't been updated in six months. On gnutella.wego they suggested using Gnotella. I found a site that has Gnotella that wasn't to busy at http://www.atcybertopia.com/download/gnotella/index.html

NAPIGATOR works great in conjunction with napster. Go to http://www.napigator.com and do the download for this program, and access napster through it. It'll give you access to more than just napsters servers. Have fun and ENJOY. Howie
