Pros: Resume downloads. Cons: Most songs are restricted; Spyware; Doesn't have as many users.
Audiogalaxy is a small, plain and relatively featureless tool to download music (that's MP3's) from music fanatics such as myself. I began using it as a replacement for Napster, after I lost track of all its legal proceedings. It served my purpose...
Pros:::Great source for rare tracks!:: Cons:::Invades your privacy! Some queued downloads may take long to initiate::
Boy have we come a long way since Napster. There have been countless of imitation file sharing programs over the past year or so that have failed to be useful. Most of them sprung up overnight after the whole Napster lawsuit came about. One...
Pros: Comprehensive search engine, resume download capabilities, simple interface. Cons: Connection speeds for a 56K can be a bit sluggish.
Wandering about the net a few weeks back, I stumbled upon an article for recent MP3 file sharing programs. Intrigued, I clicked on this little article and, to my surprise, learned of a new MP3 program that I was unaware of. Travel with me, dear friends,...
Pros: Searching is more intelligent than Napster; far fewer interrupted transfers. Cons: The Audiogalaxy web page and Satellite don't make for a terribly intuitive interface.
Author's Note: This review is out of date since AudioGalaxy has been forced to shut down since I wrote it. But I left it up for purposes of historical interest. Go check out KaZaa or something.
Pros: Fast relevant results. Cons: Can be confusing using both your browser and interface.
With many people scrambling to find replacement sources for MP3 files, AudioGalaxy has come up with a unique system to retrieve these controversial files. Although not as easy to use as Napster, it can provide an alternate means of search and...
Pros: searches even members offline, not experiencing the troubles Napster is right now Cons: not nearly as many files and options as Napster, slow, troublesome
I have come to find Audiogalaxy a decent enough last option alternative when MP3 browsing the web. It is certainly not the "NEW NAPSTER" that many seem to be shouting in their reviews. Napster is one of a kind and with the right tweaks, may not be...
Pros: Every song imaginable to choose from, easy to use, great quality, FREE!! Cons: Doesn't work well behind fire walls, a bit slow downloading.
Review of Audiogalaxy MP3 Download Tool (April 13, 2001)
I just stumbled onto this tool the other day - what a fantastic find! I was seeking a source of good MP3's to convert to WAV files so I can burn some CDs to put into my new 301 CD...
Pros: Ease of use, song selection, download queue. Cons: Spy software installed with it, but can be disabled.
The Record Industry Association of America was hoping to create a crater in the MP3 searching/downloading landscape when they went tooth and nail after Napster in the courts. And create a crater, they did. Napster is as good as dead unless your going...
Pros: better than Napster, free music Cons: spyware, slow downloading, no previews
Audiogalaxy is a small web-based program that allows you to share mp3s with other users. You must download, install, and run the program for it to work. You will know that it is running when the Audiogalaxy logo is displayed in the system...
Pros: Able to finish incomplete downloads, Web based d/ling, Groups, Chat Cons: The web page can be slow at peak hours, can't specify exact d/l location
This is one of the nicest mp3 searching tools I have used. Basically, it offers the same services as Napster but with a little extra. This service comes in two parts. The first is the Audiogalaxy satellite which runs in the background as a p2p client. It...
Pros: Easy to Use, Constant Download Rates, Lots of files in database Cons: Long navigation process, not all files download automatically
I downloaded Audiogalaxy Satellite when Napster was going downhill. I was thinking about other programs like Gnutella or Napigator, but I didn't want just another Napster program. I wanted a true-to-life MP3 search engine. When I was searching...
Pros: Any song, Any time- No Hassles Cons: Hard Drive Filling
I was hesitant to write this review as I value Audiogalaxy's service greatly and would hate to see it go the way of Napster. But I have decided that keeping the program/site secret would be doing it a big disservice.
Pros: Organized, fun, very easy Cons: Server is frequently jammed, frozen, or down
I discovered Audiogalaxy from a hole-in-the-wall website. Napster was done with, so I gave it a shot, not pleased with the other programs like Kazaa and Aimster.
It took me awhile to get used to the searching/downloading methods, but I did...
Pros: Stores info about songs to download, permits partial downloads, finds every song. Cons: Up to now, none: maybe the chat option I still havent tried!
I tried Audiogalaxy almost one month ago and I guarantee that since then I’m an addicted of this software.
Let me anticipate to you that I was using NAPSTER during its last days of “free regulation” (i.e. before the Court decisions) and the...
