not what I wanted
 

I was looking for a music track from an artist for years and when I got limewire I did a search for it, it was listed so I downloaded it but when I played it it was not what I had requested instead of the song all I got was a guy giving a plug for a web site. why did I get this instead of the song I wanted?

You would of selected a spam result, there are heaps out there...
Best way to know what is what is to check the file with Bitzi, this thread will explain how to use it..http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showthread.php?t=37676 Also get to know file sizes, this thread will tell you about those

how do you rate music?

Exactly the same way that you rate movies. Download Bitcollider from Bitzi, drag the file into Bitcollider & rate it once the Bitzi page is open:)

because i wanted to help others so they know if the song is not a fake. can you rate your own music? i dont dl movies

But you rarely see people rate songs. Movies are more likely to be rated

Unless you have dial-up or you can't get good speeds, you probably don't bother checking music files but we should rate them to help out those of us who are on a slow connection..... Just a thought:).

I am going to start rating every single song I download.
