Mactella seems slow to get moving, so I usually wait until I see there are enough files available before I do a search. So, start up Mactella, give it a few minutes, say...long enough to run to the kitchen for a soda and munchie, then go back and try it.

I also have mp3Rage and LimeWire.

Mactella works, but often it takes so long to get something to download. It is all so frustrating to me too.

wish we could just use audiogalaxy like the pc-ers do!
