The original Soulseek user base around 2000 was composed mostly of members of the IDM mailing list,[13] and most of the music first found on Soulseek was underground electronic music or music created by the users themselves. Aided by Soulseek users, the developer Nir Arbel released new versions of the client very frequently, in response to user requests for new features or bug fixes.
There is no known published usage data. Soulseek got a first boost in 2001 when Napster was closed down and then a second boost in 2002 when the site Audiogalaxy was closed down. Nir Arbel stated in an interview published December 26, 2003 that there were, at that time, over a million registered usernames and that 80,000–100,000 users log on during peak hours.[14] The increase in Soulseek users after the shutdown of Audiogalaxy was plainly evident from a before-and-after comparison of chat room populations. Before the shutdown of its competitor, Soulseek's most-joined chat rooms averaged 50 or so people. After the shutdown, the population of these chat rooms increased to 100 or more.

it's great but right now it wont download this album so who knows fuck it
also wtf are the chat rooms
|
| |
ODC/DC++/StrongDC were way more popular on this side of the globe back in the day tbh
|
| |
>it's great but right now it wont download this album
blame the fact that only one person is sharing publicly :]
which means all you fuckers have to wait in queue
something something torrenting wouldnt have this issue
|
| |
what the fuck that has just jogged some long lost memories @strongdc
|
| |
Spotify has pretty much replaced my need for slsk unless I am looking for an early leak of something I just can't wait to hear
|
| |
but pots how do you listen to obscure 80s grind demos and power electronics
oh...
|
| |
yeah i use spotify mostly but there's a buncha stuff it doesn't have
so slsk is a good back up
|
| |
How would torrenting not have that issue, having no seeders and too many leechers results in the same problems
|
| |
