>tfw someone downloads music from you on soulseek
HOG HUG
>>52900241until you realize its fucking judas priest, like fuck off
>tfw is a virus
Someone is constantly downloading from me, but there was a guy that tried to dl over 3000 songs.
>tfw mutracker's down againI'm not even surprised
>>52900361Why do people even use it? There's more music on rutracker.
>not sharing filesWhats the point of even making an account
>It looks like you're not sharing any files. Please share something before downloading anything from me
>>52900402just share your music folder
>>52900402faggot, end your life
>>52900376it's not that everyone was lucky enough to get an invitation,you know
how can you tell when someone downloads music from you
I always have weird people messaging me on soulseek
>>52900432You don't need an invitation to rutracker. You can just make an account and download without seeding, cuz there isn't a ratio limit.
>>52900402
>>52900442>that one Chilean "girl" that constantly asks for pictures and money so she can move to the US or fucking whateverEat shit and stop making a gorillion accounts, wherever you are.>>52900432Rutracker doesn't require an invite you bingbong
>tfw what.cd member and don't have to mix with mouthbreathers
>>52900493>tfw been on ratio watch for 3 months
>that glorious feel when 12 people downloading from me at the same timeSharing is what life's all about
>>52900493I'm there too, but my problem is that nobody downloads music that I listen to, so I upload 50 MB a day if I'm lucky.
>>52900493>not using multiple options available to youHow pleb can you be?
>tfw someone aborts something they're downloading from you
I had no idea what the second number in the Transfers [x/x] tab meant for the longest time. I probably closed SS on so many uploads ;_;
>mfw only share my most obscure inaccessible music>mfw only 1 person has ever downloaded anything from me
>>52901023it depends on your speedwhen I started using soulseek I had a quite low upload speed so nobody downloaded anything, but now that I have high speed it never stops to upload, even some stuff I ripped myself from library cds that are not on discogs and have very few info about them on the web
>>52901023What's your username? I'll see how obscure you really are.
check this imbecile
>>52901189Only imbecile I see is you keeping your music in archives and having shit organization. :^)
>>52901233lol player can play it so I don't care
>>52901189>.rarYeah, what kind of imbecile keeps his music in RAR
>>52901312lol player can play it so I don't care
>>52901330You're dumb
>>52901368why
>>52901250Can't re-tag it though, can you? Just seems inefficient, especially since you don't have them sorted.
>>52901435>inefficienti know shit I've donwloaded, so I just type it in search in the player and that's itwhy do I need to sort it, like someone other is going to inspect it ..
philosophical question: would you kill yourself if your name was Hogarth?
>download Black Messiah leak from /mu/>open ss>500 people trying to download itI haven't even listen to it yet.
>>52901189>Stefan2012
>>52901562I dont get why is he trying to download the whole fucking folder.I've messaged him and nothing.I've deleted albums from the list and he puts them back.

Someone is trying to download my entire Muse discog. I want to kick him.
>>52901519of course not.I can just go by a different name or legally change it.
I've opened up soulseek just to see what sort of scumbag downloaders I get, what rooms should I hang out in?
>>52901742/mu/
>>52901760funnily enough that's the only one I have set to join on connection
>>52901709Your fault for having Muse's discography, bud.
>>52901742:-) seems lovely
>>52900555>50mb a dayI seed everything in my collection and get about a half gig a day, but still. 50mb a day is decent and should be more than enough to download whatever you want, especially since there's still staff picks for quick boosts.>>52900591Why would you use soulseek if have what? Are you an mp3 fag?
>>52901826I usually just upload on slsk. On the spare occasion I can't find an album on What, I'll look on slsk for it. I do only download lossy unless I really like an album, in which case I'll download a lossless copy and put it on an external.
>>52900389to download files
>>52901858>uploading on slskI would probably do something like that with my huge perfect FLAC library, but what kind of unsavory people are there out there? Considering I've only used private trackers for like 5 years, I've pretty much forgotten all about getting letters and all that garbage. Are there copyright people logging IP's or something?
>>52901891There isn't a way to farm IPs using slsk like you could in public tracker swarms. You're perfectly safe, I've been uploading exclusively for the past year or so with no complaints or letters. I'm sure a lot of people would appreciate the FLAC, quite a few people download it off me from time to time.
>>52901923What kind of technology does it use?
>>52901765>that dutch faggot that is always onlineIf you're browsing right now, please kill your fucking self
>>52901939Peer-to-peer through some sort of front-end on slsk's side. I'm not really sure about the technical details.
>>52901496>posts screencap of soulseek>no one is going to inspect it
>.mp3 344 CBRWhat kind of madman would put these things on soulseek?
>>52902014the kind of people that are on soulseek, obviously. I wouldn't trust anything I got from there as not being transcoded to fuck.
For some reason, Soulseek doesn't work for me half the time. I click download and it stays queued.
>>52902033Sure, I get stuff from what or I rip cds, then transcode the music and up it on soulseek. That's the only way I can get an erection.
>>52902247I'm sure everyone only does perfect transcodes without any rules to enforce that.
>>52902033How do these soulseek basics live like this?>>52902147Is it because you are in a queue? If there's a number in the place column then the answer is yes.
>notice someone downloading something rare from me on soulseek>wait till it's half done>disconnect>unshare the album>change user name
>>52902330>50%What are you a novice? 85%~ is best
>>52902330>having to make stories up to fit in in a thread on a Mongolian pottery site
>>52902267If one anonymous guy on 4chan told you so, why wouldn't it be true?
>>52901709yo what the fuck someone else download just the dubstep song from 2nd law
>>52902411lol'd
What is soulseek?
>>52902551some old book about knitting i thinkmaybe this nice new tool called google will help you
>>52900493what doesn't always have the experimental electronic eps i look for
>>52902611like which ones? I've never seen an album not on what.cd.
>>52902551a place to find ur true luv ;))
>>52902636You haven't looked hard enough.>>52902611Try DB9?
>>52902670>haven't lookedI don't claim to listen to all music, but I generally get my music recs from what.cd in the first place so it's cyclical.>db9I've still got an account there, but I haven't used it in forever. I've also never found anything there that's not on what, besides their special mixes or whatever
>>52902636for example, most american jazz is on there, but it's lacking many european jazz stuffdon't know about the rest
>>52902589I only use Bing.>>52902651I will never find a bf.
A lot of new rare releases go up on soulseek before they are on what; especially foreign language stuff.
>>52902829>foreign language stufflol fuck off no one cares you weeaboo
>>52902852lel, I was thinking European stuff; forgot I was a weeaboo faggot.
>>52902946what.cd is pretty english biased, yeah. I think rutracker has a lot of european stuff though
>>52902852>foreign = japanese nowwow congrats on being dumb
>>52902636LMAO ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUSwhat.cd has the music i'm looking for probably 15% of the time, while slsk has it about 80% of the time.try to branch out of Western music, pop music, rock music, Pitchfork/mu/core etc.
>>52903509>branch out of english musicweeaboos, everyone.
>>52903531Most of Europe doesn't speak english, jesus christ are people this stupid or are you baiting us??
>>52903572
>This is just a message to everyone on my list to say have a great new year, stay safe, and also to let you know your on my list.
>>52903572how dare you? blaming american education should get you sent to jail!
>>52901826Because despite what what.cd viral marketers might say, what.cd doesn't have everything.
>>52902636try looking for this on soulseek, you won't find it, but it's on what
>not using both what and soulseek>not knowing how to check spectrals
>>52903679https://what.cd/torrents.php?id=392599
>>52903721both you and I failed at reading comprehension.
>>52903718>checking the spectral of a 320>v0 transcode>oh>>52903745I assumed you failed.
>>52903679>try looking for this on soulseek, you won't find itYes you will.
>>52900493>actually believing that what.cd is anywhere near as patrician as slskenjoy being basic for the rest of your life
>mfw people trying to chat with me>mfw it's awkward af>mfw I always answer some shit like on pic related
>>52903767It's not on soulseek dudethere are plenty of copies of the california ear unit recording, and the couple on Hat Hut, but not the 2008 Wergo recording (easily identifiable by the fade out files)
>>52903679?
>>52903771see>>52903813yeaaaaah
>>52903831that's not the same album, that's the 1992 Hat Hut recording
>>52903834there's more
>>52903644>viral marketing for a not-for-profit trackeroy vey, IPT owner
>>52903909foreigners are so bad at social skills
>>52903679good luck finding this on what.cd
>>52903945remember what we said about weeaboos?
>>52903964no
>>52903945am i supposed to put that in my megadrive
>>52903945>can't find the best recording of an important work by an important composerwho cares>can't find some obscure shit by somebody nobody ever heard ofabandon ship!
>>52903976"Not today"
>>52903945>what.cd is down
>tfw collecting proceeds from itunes store, amazon store, spotify, etc.
what.cd is good for collages and the occasional rare/new thing you cant find sometimes people will fill your requests toosoulseek is good for rarer things in generalsome things dont exist in non shit quality but you wouldnt know that cause you only listen to mucore and p4k tripe
>>52903916viraling isn't always about the money mang
>>52904014>turn around for 10 minutes>what.cd is downwell!
>>52904014Well point for slsk it's never down
>>52903996it's clearly not the best recording since the recordings preceding it are more widespread and popularalso>memerton feldman>important composermore like impotent composer lmao
>>52904014They really should announce maintenances ahead of time. What goes down semi regularly without telling people about it.>>52904018what is godly for FLAC. if you don't collect FLAC there's really not much reason to use what.cd besides hyper obscure stuff
>>52903996>best recordingno, stop being a hipster faggot
>>52904018>some things dont exist in non shit quality but you wouldnt know that cause you only listen to mucore and p4k tripeiktfare we the only two conscious men in a world of sheeps?
>>52904061slsk also doesn't use a torrenting system that lets multiple people upload to a downloaderpoint for what.cd you derp
>>52904073>all classical recordings are the same>hipster shit for having preferencehowpleb.ru
>>52904069>what is godly for FLAC. if you don't collect FLAC there's really not much reason to use what.cd besides hyper obscure stuffthis too, i didnt mention it because personally im not interested in it
Soulseek is RYM avant-teen central. If you listen to random lost tapes of African folk music, yeah, that's your place.
>>52904096>I can't wait more than five minutes to have an album! I said I want it NOW!
>>52904069>hyper obscure stufftry obscure stuffhyper obscure stuff gets deleted due to lack of seeders
>>52904141hyper obscure stuff usually has at least one seed, because it's hyper obscure and the uploader did upload it. There's a few collages that catalog really really really rare stuff
>>52904126What.cd is p4k drone central. If you listen to trendy albums of memerap artists, yeah, that's your place.
>all this fox and the grapes-style shitposting
>>52904126>look veryone, I never used soulseek and I want all of you to know it by posting this quickly proven wrong fact!
What about Ares? My brother still uses it.
>>52904185>thread about slsk>what.cd goers derail it into what.cd vs. soulseek dick measuringinsecurity much?
>>52904185soulseek is open to anyone though
>>52904221so 2004.
>>52904230it shows>>52904228they're very similar, and most people use both, so it's only natural.
soulseeks filled with weirdossome guy who collects all sorts of jungle and breakbeat hardcore all in alac and shit
>>52904228It's probably like 4 people arguing, who cares.
>it's a single off a rhcp album

>>52900493>tfw 2 years ago in college>just got invited to what.cd>looking for obscure EP i cant find anywhere else>not on what.cd>why.jpg>download soulseek at the recommendation of a friend>tfw 5 people seeding on slsk>tfw binge download on what.cd for a solid week on college connection before i get banned>tfw seeding all that FLAC on slsk now>tfw never looking backi still feel bad about fucking over whoever invited me but i didnt know them so i dont really care
Is what.cd down right now? >>52904185No. I have a what.cd account and I think it's FAR worse than slsk.
>>52904338>fucking over your inviteeslegit love this feeling
>>52904338>i still feel bad about fucking over whoever invited menothing happens to inviters, no matter what people say. It's only if you trade invites or are found to be the actual person that invited you.That said, what you did wasn't very nice, but it did help out a lot of people with ratio so.
>>52904328no its not him he doesnt give a fuck about qualitythis guys useful though i just convert all the shit i get from himhope he didnt block me when i tried to get some orca eps
>>52904356How? Slsk is great for a rare album or two, but it's way more disorganized and slower.
>>52904361see>>52904371lol. source: am a TM
>>52904398For popular albums, what.cd is faster (almost instantaneous) but slsk is still fast. At that point, the speed is insignificant. For obscure albums, slsk wins in every way. The organization doesn't really bother me as long as I can see the file stats like kbps and whatnot. If you enter your search properly you won't get a thousand results. Wishlisting on slsk for the most obscure albums is also really fun. On what.cd, people have to take the painstaking time of uploading every single release individually and then having it scrutinized or even deleted later. On slsk, a music collector can share their ENTIRE library with a few clicks. The results are pretty significant. Slsk is just a haven of those under-appreciated releases. I've thought about keeping a list of stuff I know isn't on what.cd and I got in good quality from slsk so I could upload it all for ratio, but I honestly don't care because my ratio is already fine and I barely use what.cd anyway. The only time I really use what.cd is during freeleeches.
>>52904561>On what.cd, people have to take the painstaking time of uploading every single release individually and then having it scrutinized or even deleted later. On slsk, a music collector can share their ENTIRE library with a few clicksyou don't see the problem here?
>>52904609no, I'm not an autist about this and badly labelled folders and tags are easily corrected
>>52904713what.cd doesn't care that much about this by the way. Mostly things get trumped for data integrity, which can not be so easily fixed (see: not at all)

>mfw I don't share shit except with friends list>mfw entire program has been taken over by poorfags who think they are entitled to music Buy music weekly. Have this program for over 8 years. People used to buy shit every week and talk in the chat rooms of what to get so no one overlaps. It's a shame what a shithole Soulseek has become. Luckily, it's a community within a community because most people who do buy are doing exactly what I'm doing and not showing files to the public.
>>52905241I don't understand. you upload music because you want others to have it. In reality, you're the selfish one.
>>52905241it's a good thing what.cd isn't affected by jerks like you. It doesn't matter if you don't want to seed it, others will :3>people don't buy music before they pirate itwhat are you 40?
>>52905298No, I upload music because I'm shelling out 100 every week on digital and vinyl and I expect people to contribute back instead of sharing some shitty scene release I can find anywhere on the net.
>>52905366what do you listen to
>>52905366why are you buying music in the first place, you moron? Don't cry to us that you're spending money because you're spending money.
>>52905366assuming it's new music, upload all of that to what.cd, and with all the ratio you get, make requests for things you want. That way, everyone gets music and you don't have to deal with russians.>b-but I HATE what.cd because soulseek is muh secrit club
>>52905424Lol who's crying? The system is perfect...the people who buy will share with others who buy. I'm just pointing out what a useless poorfag you are and the fact you cry when someone doesn't share files with you because all you have is scene releases.
>>52905493>The system is perfectthen why are you getting so upset? I don't even use soulseek to download for your information.
>>52905462I'd be ok with that.
>>52905366you're buying music because you want to have the music. You're literally so entitled to free music that buying music becomes a foreign concept.
>>52905493what kind of music do you listen toare you just after quality flac rips or whatmost new things get leaked on what.cd for the bounty and trickle through the rest of the internet really fastunless youre doing this with some obscure rymcore that you dont want other people to have i really dont understand
