I couldn't find anything of Adiago

I believe its by Beethoven. Its mainly piano, if not all piano.

I sort of suspect the title isn't just "Adagio," because that would be like calling your song "Ballad." Or more precisely: "Slow."

Typically a longer piece, such as a symphony, concerto, or sonata, will have a section or movement called "Adagio," because it's played slowly.

If it's just a piano by itself, it's probably a piano sonata.

Pardon my musical ignorance Thib, I've just always seen this particular song listed as "Adiago".

This is a sample of the song.

That's odd, because when I click the link you provided, the media player says it's playing something called "Pno Son no. 14 c#, Op.27 No.2."

When I google that, I find out that it's quite commonly called the "Moonlight" Sonata. The first movement is, indeed, an Adagio Sustenuto---that means "slow and sustained."

However, it would be a "waste" of your time to look for music files of Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata.

If you were here, and I had a ladder, I'd bitch slap you for being a smart ass.

Actually, I was introduced to that piece via a file that labeled it simply "Adiago". Whether I "wasted" my time finding it, well, I'm not sure. I believe I may have gotten it out of a knapsack back when it was free.

I'm tell you now it would be a waste of time trying to find Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata.

I had previously wasted my time looking for that song a few months back.

In fact, if you were to waste your time looking at my efforts, you'd see where my confusion came from.

So what music service are you using to do this?

I used to use KaZaa or whatever its called, but it liked to give my computer lots of viruses and whatnot. So now I use WinMX, not as much selection but good enough for me.

Kazaa is crap. Kazaa Lite (a cracked, ad-free version of Kazaa) works well, but is increasingly difficult to download because it't not legal.

WinMX is pretty good.

I put eMule on a computer last week, and that seems to work really well. I like it better than WinMX. You might want to try that one.

I don't think I have any file sharing programs on my PC now. I just don't have the need to download music or stuff like that.

The problem with emule is you pretty much have to dedicate a computer to it to get the benefit of it. Takes it a long time to get decent speeds.

You can use one client to find the installer for kazaalite though

Napster worked pretty well for me last week.
