Is Soulseek down?

[bas_I_am]

I can browse slsk.org and slsknet.org. the test shows my ports are open. . .

I get this:

Could not connect to server. If your Internet connection is up, the server might be temporarily down. Please try again later.

yeah, what with all the more direct paths of stealing music [or trading legal bootlegs and indie recordings], such as torrent, FTP, direct connect etc., i'm surprised anyone still uses P2P.

I always seem to have better luck finding things with soulseek

Its the only way :D

oh, i'm not putting down slsk, that's how i have copies of the mother earth ep and other rarities. i just thought it had been replaced by now.

I still use Soulseek when other avenues fail me. These days most albums are found quickly through google but slsk still comes up trumps for rare singles and stuff.

Audiogalaxy was definitely the best though and is sadly missed.
