ah the good old days, where instead of recommendation algorithms you had some guy deliberately adding more popular artists' names to songs so you'd accidentally download them and broaden your horizons a bit
shoutouts to whoever mislabeled Chylinska as Rammstein in 2001 btw, you made me like 5% cooler

LimeWire was terrible. Quickly switched to Soulseek and have been using it ever since. Actually Nicotine+, but that's besides the point.
Soulseek was Amazing. What was cool is you could chat with people. I met a "Girl" from Israël and she made me discover a lot of cool rap bands like CunninLynguists. It was fun.
Good ol’ Kazaa
Napster for me, and I downloaded the entire Metallica anthology after Lars Ulrich said what he did.
By the time I got an Mp3 player like this, the second generation iPod released soon after. 😬

I swear I had this exact model in blue, before going back to SanDisk
I went full circle. Downloaded from Napster back in the day, and now I subscribe to their streaming service. They apparently pay artists better than some of the other streamers, too.
There is a song that I can no longer access on an old iPod. It was that song "Better Off Alone" by Alice DJ, but it had like extra songs added into it kinda like a mashup of a few other songs. How I WISH I could go back and download it on Limewire. :(
