(Please Sticky)
Since people (mainly Minal and Juliana) have been wondering were I get
my music and so quickly. Since I want to share with you guys, I'm
posting a few of them up.
Message me if they die, cause sometimes a site gets closed down.
A
Majority of these are somewhat safe. I've been using these sources for
a long time now (about 3-4 years) and nothings happened yet. These are
ripped straight from the CD's they come in, unless it's noted otherwise
(like it's says Radio Rip or DVD Rip). I believe there's no reason not
to use these. I'll rant about that later.
Mainly Korean and Chinese (sometimes, and rarely, Japanese)
ihoneyjooNote:
ihoneyjoo doesn't update everyday (sometimes it's almost a week before
they update), but they update in large quantities, so it's okay. You
can also find some English Music here (once I found the 30!HO or
something album).
Japanese
(super-rarely Korean)
jbumsNote:
jBum is probably one of the best placese for a source. They update more
frequently then ihoneyjoo, but not much. It's irregular. Sometimes they
update everyday, sometimes theirs a 6-9 day wait before you hear a word
from them. It's pretty good site. If you are given multiple download
links, so with either these sites, in this order (incase it's not
there): Mediafire (MF), Megaupload (MU), easy-share, hotfile, Rapid
Share (RS). I advise you NOT to use Rapid Share, since it's the slowest
thing in the world. Believe me, I have a 200 kb/s connection. *be
jealous xD*
(Strictly Japanese)
JMDThis
site is probably the most originized and bountiful I've seen to date.
Great Source for Japanese Singles and Albums. I haven't gone through
the DVD's yet. Hopefully their good. This one's relitively new to me,
though I've been to it before. I'll need a bit more surfing on this
before I officially go for sources.
Korean and Japanese (NO Chinese).
R3Z4profThis
place is pretty new to me (I found it a few days ago). In those days,
I've seen stuff that released that I haven't ever heard about. Like the
new UVERworld PV they JUST RELEASED. It hasn't even shown up on
JPopasia yet. THAT is fast.
.
They also have quiet a number of Korean posts too. I'm quiet happy with
this site. I was reading the world-users readings, and he gets quiet
the number of guest. I mean it.
Asian Stuff in General
Nyu's AnimeThis
place has your general Discography (though they were complete at the
time they were made, some need to be updated :S), and games (for DS
simulators) and movie downloads and so on. It's quiet a good site. Very
Otaku-issh though, I only go for the discography.
These sites are pretty good, though do go around them with caution. I've been doing it for so long, that it's kinda of natural to me, so I can't really discribe whats safe and whats not. When you see it, you know.
