This
Soulseek is a major honeypot, stay away OP
101%
>>63444541
Absolutely no chance whatsoever.
There are a total of zero policemen using soulseek.
I know because I have friends in the department.
Remember though it's very important to verify your full name and address in the forums when downloading music.
>>63444541
We're en-routed to your house right now
as likely as you not having shit taste
>>63444541
Does Soulseek reveal your IP? With torrents people can see your IP but how about soulseek?
>>63444541
0%, no-one has ever gotten into trouble downloading or uploading to Slsk.
>>63444620
soulseek takes over your webcam and takes photos of you when you're illegally downloading music
wear a balaclava
>>63444625
Fuck off
>>63444670
Find proof that states otherwise or shut up, loser.
You can probably gauge from the responses that you don't have much to worry about.
>>63445615
>le prove me wrong :DDD
literal cancer
no
wouldnt recommend downloading beatle albums
Why not use what.cd?
>reminder that last time we had a slsk vs what thread the slsktards got blown out so fucking hard they stopped responding
>>63445823
there is literally nothing on what.cd
>>63444646
is my ebin guy fawkes mask good enough??
>>63445846
Consult the archive for why you're retarded and wrong
>>63445846
Except, you know, LITERALLY OVER A MILLION RELEASES YOU FUCK
>>63445846
>THOSE GRAPES WERE PROBABLY SOUR
>>63445823
>no interview required
>selection is equal if not better
>don't have to worry about ratio as long as you share stuff
>>63445668
>he's full of it
Kill yourself.
>>63445875
what are you talking about
>>63445901
apart from the stuff that i want
>>63445925
why would i lie over a shitty tracker
If you plan on using soulseek I do hope you like TRANSCODES
This is gonna turn into another slsk vs WCD thread isn't?
>>63445967
>so new that he doesn't know about grapes
underaged retard confirmed. keep your transcoded bland dadjazz trash to yourself
>>63445975
>negativland
and nothing is wasted
>>63445986
I for one am excited to witness another "soulseek idiots utterly destroyed" thread
>soulseek or /mu/ archive ever
have fun
>>63446005
That's the song Negativland by NEU!, not the band Negativland
>>63446005
I know, fuck krautrock, right?
>>63446005
good God you're dumb
typical of a soulseek browser I suppose
what are the pros and cons of soulseek and what.cd?
who wants a what invite
>>63446258
gimme
>>63446228
I'm trying to think of a pro for slsk, but ultimately the low barrier of entry is a con. Just take the whatcd interview. It's not like you have anything better to do.

If you think I'm stupid and desperate enough for this, you're correct
>>63446325
what are the pros and cons of what.cd then?
>>63446228
>>63446356
>Soulseek
Pros:
>tons of stuff
>no effort required to join
>no worrying about sharing for the most part (although if you are a faggot who refuses to, at least share a little bit of garbage so you don't get banned by anyone who you download from)
Cons:
>transcodes
>everything good is hosted by people with shit internet
>only choice in formats is gonna be 128/192/320kbps MP3, V0, and FLAC (128kbps MP3 transcode). No AAC or ALAC, ogg, OPUS
>what.cd
Pros:
>shitloads of stuff, maybe a bit less than soulseek
>tons of different formats to choose from
>pretty much no transcodes
Cons:
>taking interview (it's not hard if you understand all the prep stuff)
>maintaining ratio (you have to seed the same amount of stuff that you download or put something up yourself)
>account can be frozen if you aren't active
>there's some extra rules for people with VPNs

only autists care enough to go through their library and do this because they can't tell just by listening to the song but they want to be sooper patrish
>>63446356
The measures taken to ensure retards who can't learn things get banned even if they get in turn out to be pros, so I can't think of any cons.
>>63446399
what are transcodes?
>>63446424
Nah, I can tell by hearing the song (because my headphones are worth more than $5), but it's fun to slam these in peoples face. It's like catching the nigger who stole your bike on camera.

o i am laffin
>>63446596
Id like to add that anything not on what is on a blog that's always far more reputable than some tard on soulseek. Literally no reason to use it other than being too lazy or too inept to properly use what.
I use slsk cause it's easy, and I don't want care about ratio and all that stuff.
Oh also, audiophilia is a mental illness for bald 50 yo Pink Floyd fans.
>>63446608
On What.CD right now, what's with all the gay porn?
>>63446622
>objectively more stupid than YouTube to MP3 people
>>63446646
I can't torrent in college and I can't tell the difference between transcodes so I just use the archive, why the fuck do you care so much about where other people get their shit from anyway
>>63446622
all you can do is post memes in response to people proving that soulseek is shitty
what surprise that soulseek drones are retarded though
>>63446618
thank you
>>63446656
>and I don't want care
When a soulseeker proves their brain damage by typing word soup I laugh EVERY TIME
>>63446670
>is able to afford a $100,000 college education
>somehow can't find $30 for passable headphones
>>63446670

What are you using, Skullcandies? Christ has neo/mu/ really taken over lately
>>63446697

I use Etymotic hf5s, stay mad tho
>>63446656
Like, I thought audiophilia was maybe a fetish or something. So I looked it up and found this fucking guy: http://www.theguardian.com/music/2015/nov/29/lost-in-music-the-world-of-obsessive-audiophilia
This is exactly who you described.

>>63446791
>not obsessing over bitrates and transcodes is a mental illness

>>63446811

>BUTTMAD SLSK SHILL GET BTFO BTFO LMAO KEK YOU'RE MUSIC A SHIT TRANSCODE
>>63446694
I laugh at your tiny penis

Nigger literally just memorized the name of a reputable set of high-fidelity earphones. Just look at him replying to the thread calling for help.
>>63444541
FBI van on its way to your home now, OP. Even thinking about slsk is illegal.
>>63446884
aw man you got me I listen to music out of my phone speaker but I can't hear it anyway because I'm too busy eating rocks
>>63446823
More like not being able to detect when something sounds like garbage. It's not hard, man. Sorry that you can't process it
>>63446990
y u mad tho
>>63447016
Probably because he got banned for not sharing lmao
>>63447016
A bad transcode raped my mom, burned my house down, and stole my vinyl collection when I was only five
>>63447062
awww ;_;
>>63447016
I'm sincere, I feel bad for you
>you'll never be able to process music on the level that I do
>>63447142
it doesn't matter if you have shit taste tho
>soulseekers can't hear a transcode
guess I know where all the downies and Brazillians go
>>63447142
let's all tip our fedoras in respect
Do people still get caught downloading shit? I can't remember last time I read about someone actually getting in trouble for it.
>>63446595
you actually have autism though buddy sorry just letting you know
>>63447403
F*ck off before I pwn you.
>>63447547
Eat my butthole...slowly :D :D
>>63447547
I'm really sorry this is how you had to find out
I started using Soulseek after my ISP started giving me warnings from downloading torrents. They have peers set up to log your IP and send it straight to your ISP.
>still uses torrents on rare occasions
so I just went into getting an Interview for what.cd and it says my country is banned from interviews
fuck this. Why do they ban a whole fucking country based on a few niggers?
>>63447986
Just talked to some admin and he said I can only register if I receive an Invite, you guys know anyone willing to help a stranger?
I like soulseek. I rarely need a tracker to get stuff but fortunately all the rare stuff I was looking for was on SLSK. There's only a couple of albums not on SLSK but I strongly doubt they are also on What.
