So, where can I get a fresh copy of Limewire?
- Screw limewire, soulseek is the way, an endless sea of perfectly organised music libraries, you'll find what you want and stuff you didn't know you needed.
  
  The problem is when they're perfectly organised in a different manner from what you expect :D
  
  Yeah I judge them by how they organise their collection.
  
  I organize them into
  Source (Bandcamp, Deezer, etc) --> Artist - Album --> Files
  It's easy to navigate and makes handling multiple versions of the same album easy because they are seperated into source folders.
  
  For the files themselves lately I've been doing something like Country of Origin/Artist/Original Year - Album (Catalogue Number) (Release Year)/ (used to do it without the country, but at one point they became way too many, and I don't really like organising by letter or whatever). I love foobar2000 with Facets because of the fact that you can shove any arbitrary tag into the files and then have columns show it (I'm doing that with the countries for example), but I'm now suffering a bit because of that habit - I started also self hosting my library and Navidrome that I'm using doesn't like just any tags that you throw at it (it especially doesn't like it if you have multiple releases of the same album that have come out in the same year).
  
  Sorry but I gotta say it... having artist as a seperate folder is wild.
  
  My view is that not having separate artist folders is wild, but hey, whatever works for you.
  All in all however specific folder structure is not terribly important to me; what's important is that the tags are in order and that I can make the app I'm using present the stuff in the manner that I want.
  
  Do you share music on p2p services or do you just have a personal collection? The reason people don't like seperate artist folder is because when sharing the folder it won't include the artist name.
  
  I do, but shush, don't tell anyone! Still, nobody has complained about that so far.
  
  Perfectly organizing in 50 different ways has a name too
  
  Now I'm sad that it already has a name - I don't get to name my diagnosis.
  /s
  
  Thanks for this. I'd not heard of soulseek. I'm an *arr person with Usenet. It'll be nice to see if I can find some rare / missing items.
  
  I am a mildly net savvy person who only knows about torrents and file sharing. Can you point me to resources where I can learn more about Usenet? Also, what client and service do you use to access it? Thanks in advance.
  
  Unfortunately, R#ddit is still a great resource for that. Check out the /r/Piracy wiki.
  To summarize, Usenet is made up by servers that host all the "newsgroups", but nowadays newsgroups are used to share files (like email attachments).
  You don't need to know anything about Usenet itself, the things you need are three:
  an indexer (they let you find nzb files, like torrent files)
  a Usenet server subscription (where files are actually stored)
  a client to download from that server (nzbget and SABnzbd are the two most used)
  Good luck!
  
  Trashguides is a good place for the arr applications.
  Tldr you'll need a hoster, newshosting is what I use And an indexer drunkenslug is one I use. I have 6. Lol
  Indexer is the search that points to the files hosted on the hoster.
  Good luck!
- if you're being for real, it's successor is this. though compared to other offerings these days I don't really prefer to use it. open source and no ads tho so that's cool.
  
  I wasn't, but thanks!
- Be cool, use Frostwire
- Audiogalaxy for me. But then I love BBC radio dramas and I got I have no idea how many hours from there. Most of it lost now sadly.
