Oh my... did you guys (Audiogalaxy) have P2P file downloading waaay back in the day, like 2001-2002? I want to say the first or second thing I was told by roommates to install when I booted up my first computer in college was an Audiogalaxy client. Logo looks familiar... name sounds familiar... say it's so?

Yup, that is us. We were out of the music biz for a while ( http://www.crunchbase.com/company/foldershare ) but are back now with a slightly different business model.

Audiogalaxy doesn't support Linux natively. However, you can run it under Wine.

:(

I'll give it a shot using Wine, but a real client would be so much better.

That's what I did - I got a cheapest VPS for $5 so that I can stream stuff from Hulu/CrunchyRoll/and few other services. Plus - it's always useful to have a VPS anyway.

Do you just port forward with SSH via -D? Or do you use some sort of VPN solution?

Yep what I would do is just `ssh -C -N -D ` and then tell my browser to use the SOCKS proxy at localhost:.

(BTW, -D create a SOCKS proxy, port fowarding is done using -L :-).)
