P2P Search Tips

[MikeHunt]

Since all of us on BeatKing are music lovers, I thought I would post a list of search tips and tricks that work with most P2P search engines, with the idea being to turn up interesting new music ..that might otherwise get overlooked.

Feel free to add on any additional tips that are your favorites , or ones that I've missed.

COMPLETE (you will get lots of incomplete as well)
