im at a university and they have made it so no one can download any music from like kazaa and limewire and stuff. thats all fine, I know they’re just tryin to follow the rules but the thing is I paid money to be a member of kazaa so im aloud to download music. since they’re restricting it tho, I cant but im mad cause I paid money to be able to do it. is there any way around this???
sorry this isnt in the correct forum but I dudnt know where to put it. please direct me to anpother forum who might know more about this topic if you guys dont. thanks!
You didn’t buy the kazaa “service”. You payed for an ad-free/spyware free program. While you payed for the program, you can’t use it from behind the school network. You will need to go to a legal music service if all file-sharing programs are blocked.
dammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmn I guess I shoudl have read it a little better.. bummer..thanks for letting me know
You might want to consider bit torrent or another alternative way to download stuff illegaly. 😉 They don’t use the same connection method that P2P programs use, and probably aren’t blocked.
Alot of schools have internal Direct Connect hubs, where you can trade files with other students on the network. Very fast and most likely not allowed. But ask around and see what others are using.
Edit: By the way what school is it? I’m not going to snitch lol. Just wondering because your profile says Philly and I know some people who go to school there.
i go to west chester university in west chester, pa but I live like 20 min from south philly normally when I live at home with my mom.
i found out how tro download music. whenever I want a song I just have my friend download it and then send it to me so oh well..atleast I can stil get my songs haha
lol its probably some poor guy with a crush on you. I was just asking cause I know a few people who are at Drexel. Also got a grandma in Horsham and an aunt in Hatboro, a little north of philly.
you might want to check out blubster, its worked for me so far on my school’s network, even when they’ve blocked mostly everything else. one week towards the end of freshman year, my roommate and I tried about 100+ different p2p programs, and found only two that work… blubster we already had, and ares, which seems to work pretty well
