I'm currently using winmx which works great, but just wondering if there are any other alternatives...

For some reason Winmx never worked well for me . I never got a complete file. Other alternatives would be imesh, kazaa, or emule.

Well I found my dorama soundtrack on irc in some jdrama channel, winmx sux for me becos I'm not asian and I cant dl asian mp3 with asian title I use soulseek good place to dl japanese music and of course I use my beloved direct connect plus plus I'm on this hub :
meng-tih.serveftp.org best place to dl asian stuff ^-^

Hello I have ost of :

strawberry on the shortcake
beautiful life
gto
love generation
yamato nadeshiko
long vacation

some opening or ending song like : summer snow, seikei bijin ^-^

If u need some of those ost just lemme a pm msg

In the past when I would try d/l songs on winmx i'd always get cut off. Then I heard somewhere (don't know how true it was) that Japanese people preferred you to message them and ask to d/l the files before actually starting to d/l them. Since then whenever i see a song i want I send a PM to the person. usually they are really helpful and I always get the song I wanted. Sometimes they even offer to give me more stuff. Of course, you need to be able to type and read japanese to do this.

you could try www.jpopwind.com ...if you are looking for new releases.

i have probs connecting to soulseek... used to use it but i cant connect/get disconnected very often nowadays...

WinMx is pretty good for downloadin jpop, much better than Kazaa.
I used to acquire the latest jpop albums from friend's ftp, he's got loads of jpop stuff , but he has left the dorm. So, no more edu leechin

Currently gettin jpop from jpop channels on irc. Pretty convenient.
Can't wait to get my hands on Katase Nana's debut album!
*Chu chu babe! chu chu babe..!*

katase nana - shine << this is her latest song right?
is it nice?

The Opening song is sung by Chemistry and the title is Kimi wo Sageshita from their latest album Second to none

It's a pretty good song! If you want the song, feel free to ask. hehe

I thinks kazaa is the best way. Better if you have broadband connection. Btw, have you guys been to this site. http://jpmp3.com/ You can download the latest japanese album there in mp3 format. FULL ALBUM. quite nice isnt it. Err.. just asking. Issit illegal to post url like this here.

You have it? If possible can you beam to me? My streamload id is le_cherrie. Thanks

xyz

its not bad, worth a listen

Dun have streamload account. Irc? I can reached be at drama channels in aniverse. I'll be gladly to send the song to you.

I'm clueless about irc. Don't have it and never used it before.

xyz

ftp? icq?

I watched this show "koi no kiseki" quite sometime ago, and there was this song in it which i liked alot but couldnt find anywhere, even on winmx. I'm quite sure the song is fumiya fuji's "kaze no jidai". Does anyone have it? If so would you be kind enough to send my through IRC or ICQ or something?

Check Kazaa. It is there. Use the artist name to find cause the spelling of the song is different.

Try spelling as Fujii (note the double 'i') Fumiya.
Hope this helps!

hey! that fujii trick really worked! now i got some results... hopefully i can finally get that song now... thanks!
