Giving Napster A Run For Their Money

Written: Jan 21 '01 (Updated Jan 21 '01)
Pros:Download music and resume interrupted downloads.
Cons:Not as big as Napster...yet.
The Bottom Line: Audiogalaxy is a superior service. No more file transfer errors or non resumeable downloads!

If you download Mp3's from Napster, then Audiogalaxy will be a welcome guest to your computer.

In fact, if you compare the two, I am betting that you will find Audiogalaxy much easier, and more rewarding to use. Why? Let me tell you what Audiogalaxy is all about.

Audiogalaxy provides three major services for online music lovers and performers. With each of these services, you will find them to be easily navigated, and if any questions arise, answers can be found in a snap! Audiogalaxy provides;

First, one of the best Mp3 search engines available on the web
By downloading their nonintrusive "Audiogalaxy Satellite", you will be able to add the music you want to download, and it will be sent to your computer in the background. You can do whatever you normally do on the web, and the satellite will continue to download the music you choose, without being too noticeable.

Want to end your Internet session, but your not done downloading your music? No Problem! When you sign back onto the Internet, the Audiogalaxy satellite will continue your downloads, right where you stopped them in the last session. This is a fantastic feature! With Napster, this is not possible.

In addition, if you are downloading a file and there is a problem with that download, Audiogalaxy will search for a more reliable site for you to download that file. All of this is done automatically, without any searching on your part. Also, while the program is running, users can download any of the files that you have downloaded, without any interruption of your downloading. If a file that you want is not available at the time that you choose it, it will be sent to your download list. When that file is available, audiogalaxy will automatically download it for you. No need to go back and try to find the file again. One you put it in your requested list, it stays there unless you decide to remove it.

Unlike Napster, Audiogalaxy offers searches of genres, songs, and artists. Your results are listed at their website, in an easy to read format. Instead of searching, and trying to decipher just what it is that your results have produced, Audiogalaxy's database makes it easy to figure out, giving you your results, just like a regular search engine would.

Secondly, Audiogalaxy provides 25MB for musicians to host there own website. Musicians can also introduce and host their music for Audiogalaxy member to download and hear. This is a great tool for new artists trying to get that extra boost in promoting their music. I have found many excellent new artists this way, and since they allow the musician to provide a link to their homesite, I have even purchased music that I may have never heard about. Audiogalaxy provides the listener a new avenue to find new, undiscovered artists that they can add to their music libraries.

And lastly, Audiogalaxy Provides it's users with a free music e-magazine on it's front page of the site. The e-mag is full of information about new, and popular artists, and comprehensive music and software reviews provided by the Audiogalaxy staff.

Audiogalaxy has many advantages over other services such as Napster; easier location of files, resumed downloading, and many additional features.

While Audiogalaxy may not be as "big" as Napster yet, it proves to be a service that may give Napster a run for the money in the Mp3 world.
