mid-size music trackers (not what.cd and waffles)

Thank for all the great info. One of my best friends has one what.CD invite, but I didn't ask for it since I know it's pretty valuable. On top of that, I am only getting started with my own collection, and I figure a good "mid-size" tracker will do it. I will wait around and see if anyone is kind enough to give off an invite to STmusic or VIP music.

Stmusic in terms of management is a superior to what.cd.

Although there is alot more content on what.cd, but at the cost of being harassed constantly.
If you really want to get into the site, take the interview. It's not really "valuable" at all, every tracker you have listed is top-notch compared to what.cd's staff.

Once you get the hang of torrenting and music files look into waffles, it is simply the best for finding all music.
 
STMusic is shit. I got so many dupe downloads when I used that site. Uploaders there think its perfectly fine to snatch tracks off of limewire at mixed bitrates, retag it as an album, and label it as 'V0'
 
EZtorrents is amazing to me, but that's because it's a niche site which provides only flac bootlegs, and I appreciate that stuff.

Demonoid and Isohunt should be fine for 'entry level' mp3 users, or basically for anyone from audiophiles to regular listeners.
 
Lol@ the above.

Anyway, the interview really isn't that bad. And if your friend has an invite, just have him send it if he's willing. Invites are meant to be used. Idk how a site with 120K members is considered hard to join...
 
Personally I find that unless you're into the likes of what/waffles, most other "private" sites are sorely lacking in terms of content.

Music files aren't really that big either, so I don't find speed to be that much of an issue, so I would just go for the big sites.

Public trackers, demonoid, torrents.ru, as well as DDL from rapidshare and SoulSeek should be plenty.
 
Definitely check out soulseek. I've found some extremely rare albums on there, though unfortunately it's often in 128kbps MP3 :( Learn how to rip music soulseekers!

Other than that, What/Waffles are really your best bet if you're looking for a private tracker...
 
Thanks guys, great information. I wish I could have some good invites that I can trade with someone. Anyway, I will just wait around and see if some day someones is willing to give off STMusic, ScenceSound or VIP Music invite.

Don't resort to trading if you haven't done so already. There's no reason for you to go down that path and it could screw you over later if sites discover who you are. Make a request for one of those sites after posting a bit more and I'm sure someone will help you out a bit, since invites to each one are fairly plentiful.

Alternatively, take the What.CD interview. It's the best private site for music, and if you ever become a Power User there they have many sites available in their PU+ Invites forum, and you'll never be forced to resort to trading :)
