Quick rant about file sharing
I was looking for a particular classical piece. It was by Bach and pretty well known, so I figure someone out there might have had it. Anyway, trying to find anything classical on file sharing servers is like trying to find a needle in a haystack. Most are only listed as "Mozart" "Bach" or "Beethoven" with nothing else to distinguish them. Once you download them you soon realize that it is something by a completely different composer in a completely different style period all together.

I mean if you have classical music on your computer wouldn't you at least know what *composer* it is???

I found what I was looking for but it was a frustrating process...grrrrr!
