So glad you have managed it Helen, happy listening, you can even burn them on to CD, but do not ask me how to do that, because I haven`t got round to doing that yet.

Helen I use Livewire all the time.

To get the fastest download just don't try to download more than 10 songs at a time.

Thanks for that tip Colin coz it's painfully sloooooow!! Tcht, have to delete some of them then, but then I'll forget what I remembered I liked! Lol!

Oh this is taking me back, Rose Royce Wishing on a Star, Stylistics, My Girl, love 'em all!!!!

Thanks for all your help, I'm going to log out of here too coz that might be slowing it up a tad!

Dont forget they will go straight into your library once they are downloaded and then you can click on them with enqueue and then you can have continuous play.

If you want to download you can use Limewire for free (illegal) or use a site like itunes and pay for individual tracks.

TBH I go to Asda and buy CDs now cos places like itunes just rip you off when you consider how much you actually end up paying for an album with no actual cd or cover etc.

So in short, for free downloads I'd use Limewire!
Just a small point it is NOT illegal to download music free or otherwise, it is illegal to download some music and video etc but there is alot of music out there which is free legally.

I use torrents as they are much safer (no virus's or trojans) and you get some very fast download speeds Mika's album took just 10 minutes this morning.

A did a very quick guide to torrents here
http://www.dogsey.com/showthread.php?t=72750

In the guide i mention Demonoid, that site is currently having a problem and only the forum is running.

Any questions just ask
