Multi-Lingual Searches in P2P Programs?

An Anonymous Coward asks: "My wife is a Gnutella addict (flavor: LimeWire) and is wondering what the options are for doing searches in multiple languages. Has anyone had experience with any Gnutella-based programs that work well? She's specifically interested in Japanese, but I suppose there must be others out there who'd like to find Korean, Arabic, Thai, and other songs. Any ideas? Anyone working out there on a new cool multi-lingual version?" What a good idea, and yet another area where P2P may step up first, leaving the more traditional distribution channels behind. Again. How are some of you finding foreign songs using the current music-related P2P offerings (Gnutella, Napster, Morpheus/KaZaa, etc)?

"I work for the music industry..."

When I used to sweep the floor at a printing shop I didn't go around telling people that I was a publishing executive.

How do you know that his wife isn't part of the RIAA secret police, searching for pirates?

RIAA is attempting to violate anti-trust laws

Not everything online in the form of MP3s is pirated! I have a lovely collection of MP3s that bands themselves have put up to promote their own albums. I listen to the stuff that the music industry doesn't want to deal with because the demand is too small. Killing online sharing is just a way for you guys to eliminate this competition for your distribution network before any big name artists start defecting. In the name of protecting artists you are trying to violate their rights again, and anti-trust law.

if I were you, I would start thinking about a new career. there won't be much left of the music industry in a few years, and you know it. your job was possible because the music industry has been making abnormal profits for the last 40 years. like you really do anything at that job anyway. i know i don't.

You can in hebrew

I don't know if songs in hebrew are your thing, but i can clearlly say that their is no problem to search for hebrew songs in kazaa (and it's other clones).I live in Israel and use a hebrew/english keyboard and no changes were needed for me to search for hebrew songs in kazaa,it came right out of the box. FYI Napster RIP was a very popular place to find songs in hebrew and also had no problems for doing that kind of search.
