For playing your music, iTunes 2 works great on OS 9. It has a Radio Tuner section for listening to internet radio which I like more than downloading. You can make a playlist of radio favorites, and with the Advanced/Open Stream command you can listen to any radio stream that has a playlist (.pls) url. Without high speed internet access, neither downloading or streaming are practical. For downloading, LimeWire is klunky but it works; iSwipe and Myster are more obscure p2p apps and had OS 9 versions last time I checked. You can probably find music files with the Hotline client. The BitTorrent site says there is a way to run it under OS 9 but I don't know anyone who has tried that. AFAIK the internet radio streams are perfectly legal. If you distribute a copyrighted work without permission, you are infringing on someone's copyright. -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
