Limewire, Kazaa, soulseek or even just plain ol’ ftp servers.

Napster, Limewire and Realplayer just didn’t exist I guess.

Downloading songs via Kazaa or Limewire was always exciting. Would you get that sound clip of Bill Clinton, a virus, pornography or Shrek? No way to verify and it was a risk we were all willing to take.

Yt-dlp using ffmpeg would like a word. Allows me to download entire youtube channels worth of mp3 files. Currently have the entire library of Electronic Gems, Trap Wolves, Trap Nation, Lofi Girl, Monstercat and NCS on my pc, with more to come. Also allows you to save which video’s you’ve already downloaded, so you can run the executable periodically to get all the latest tracks!

Still do it, and can also do it with Spotify songs.
I’ll always have dem files offline on my devices.

You mean Napster?

If you don’t hate the command line, yt-dlp is a really versatile tool for downloading stuff from YouTube. Mp3tag is then a very useful gui tool for editing file metadata.

OG way? I still get my music this way in my mid-20’s lmao.

The OG way? Is “using limewire and accidentally infecting the family computer” just a joke to you youngsters or something?
