Hi, i just wondering where u can download some good reggae music. because i havent found any good torrentsides yet.

peace//solo

Try DC++

Or Limwire (u can download limewire @)

http://www.limewire.com/english/content/download.shtml


JAH BLESS

or you can try soulseek

one perfect love to the divine one

support the music and brederen and sistren and buy it

start with www.ebreggae.com

I would stay well away from Limewire. It's just dirty. Check Soulseek. There is some very good quality material that is not available anymore. But read the user notes before you download. They have an ethos. I buy as much revival, re-issue stuff as i can and MP3 is the very last resort. But the fact is, there are some serious collector's that have made some very rare vinyl now available on MP3 that you simply cannot get anymore. Unless you perhaps find it on e-bay at a crazy price, of which the artist will still not benefit either.

UMMM HOW ABOUT YOU BUY THE MUSIC?!?! WHY DOES THIS SITE ALLOW THREADS ABOUT DOWNLOADING MUSIC? I'M SURE THE OWNERS OF THIS SITE DOWNLOAD MUSIC LIKE CRAZY BUT CANT WE TRY AND PROMOTE THE IDEA OF BUYING MUSIC? A LOT OF PEOPLE POST THREADS ON HERE WONDERING WHY THIS ARTIST OR THAT GROUP HAVE DISSAPPEARED......WELL DUH YOU $%@#! CUZ NO ONE PAYS FOR THE SHIT ANYMORE. HOW DO YOU EXPECT ANYONE TO COME UP WITH MONEY TO RECORD MORE MUSIC IN A STUDIO WHEN NO ONE BUYS IT?

FYAH I HAS THE RIGHT IDEA, EBREGGAE IS A GREAT PLACE TO FIND 'GOOD REGGAE MUSIC'

THESE KINDA OF THREADS CAUSE ME TO LOSE REPSECT FOR THIS SITE.

Don't blame the site, users post the comments... There's nothing wrong in sharing music, as long as you make profit of it...

what about legal download purchasing? I discovered we can buy good reggae mp3 on reggaemusicstore.com , http://www.dancetracksdigital.com/ , and emusic.com , and also on various net labels. Any other suggestions?

Sorry I mean "don't make profit of it" lol
There is some music that cannot be reached other way than download, even buying re-issues the money rarely goes to the singer, which I do care about cuz I don't mind the producer/label making any money (Respect due to the Real producers that don't cheat the musicians)
Read any interview to old singers and you'll know, rarely they receive what they deserve, even with re-issues

www.reggae-vibes.com (in this page you'll find nice interviews, where veteran artists talk about not getting any money)

That is why Blood and Fire only have 2 release last year.
Pressuresound 3 albums ina 2006.
