The iPhone is a veritable computer running Mac OS in your pocket. As such, the iPhone can now lay claim to having a natively installed P2P sharing application – iSlsk.
Installing the iSlsk application opens up a whole world of peer-to-peer music-sharing on the hundreds of thousands strong Soulseek network. Nir Arbel, a former Napster programmer, has created the iSlsk application for the iPhone – allowing users to search the SoulSeek database, queue transfers, and download files directly to the iPhone. Music downloaded through iSlsk is automatically added to your iPhone’s iTunes library and can be played immediately.
Like all third-party applications, iSlsk requires that you jailbreak your iPhone (like this). Then you’ll have to make sure that the “http://thebigboss.org/repo.xml” application repository is added to your Installer.app’s “Source” list (this is how).
