For archiving software, WinRAR could be included. It's the only one I've ever needed for files on Windows.

This thread is a blessing. For the guys who have used the music softwares, how do you typically get the music to put on them? I still use Spotify out of habit.

If you're asking where to get music, soulseek or nicotine+.

And private trackers if you care about getting releases earlier than anybody and in lossless quality, but soulseek/nicotine is fine for the average user. Beware of transcodes in the latter, though.
