“BEARSHARE FREE MUSIC DOWNLOADS - NOT!!!!!!Oh dear!!! I...”

Written on: 02/04/2011 by Hungandhungry (1 review written)

BEARSHARE FREE MUSIC DOWNLOADS - NOT!!!!!!Oh dear!!! I can only imagine that all the reviewers on the other sites must either be employed by or some relation of a BearShare employee. After extensive internet research, I concluded that with the demise of Napster, the "next best option" would be to download BearShare. How wrong can one man be???!!! Other reviewers assured me that there would be no issues, i.e. no compromise of download speed or conflictiions with other programmes. It... (read more)

Certainly not Bearshare. It will sneak into your computer and you won't know it. It's not a virus-style thing, but it can do a number on you...

Don't even think about it! I have good security on my laptop, but after downloading BearShare I had to wipe my drive and reload a lot!
It is a Fungus among us!

Written on: 13/03/2011 by Woltato

This software is far too intrusive. After installing it did the following to my computer - changed the home page to bearshare.com in all browers, installed a bear share media tool bar in all web browsers, added icons to the desktop, taskbar and start menu even though I specified not to when installing. BEarshare also autostarts when you boot up the system (you don't have any choice about this) and you can't shut it down other than forcing a shutdown through task manager. After un-installing...

Took over just about everything...had to wipe hard drive, even with secure settings. Not worth the "free".

After my trial period I cant find another product for 7.95 a month bear share is trust worthy it's fun making your own music. Well recommend Bearshare.com (read more)

Written on: 27/12/2007

I have been using BearShare since they switched over to a monthly service. I thought I would just try it for a while till I found something better. The problem I cant find anything better I like. For 7.95 a month it is a great value. The down side is you need to convert the files into mp3. Over all I like it and the selection is huge: www.bearshare.com (read more)
