Close the first window that pops up - it has a picture of a smiling white guy. Next, press "Connect" and wait for it to connect.
Then, simply look @ the channel list, find one with a suitable description and join it . After that, the albums/singles will be scrolled by bots in bold lettering . You double click on the the bot's number (a hypothetical bot would look something like "MGZ-415"). Right next to the bot's number/name it will have a number that will look something like "#4."
Type xdcc send #(the number of the album/song you wish to get) and follow directions . Those are just some basic commands; it seems complicated, but you'll get used to it quickly . It's very handy, especially if you have a cable modem :). I'm sure Spliv covered it in his tutorial, though. . I'm going to have to search for it, 'cause I'm still learning, too.
SOME POSSIBLE CHANNELS TO JOIN
mixtapegodz: Has the latest "underground" mixtapes.
gangstamp3z: Has mixtapes and albums before their release(s). I just got the Outkast and Obie CD's from there last week.
xmp3: Extremely mainstream choices.
truehiphop: Offers some more "underground" choices. Aesop Rock, Atmosphere, Dilated Peoples, etc.
G'luck, it's a great program.
