Many or all of you may have already encountered www.kvr-vst.com already in your searching for free music shit on the internet, but I thought I should post the link to it in any case. Here it is again:

www.kvr-vst.com

It fulfills various functions for the desktop musician, but the best way to think of it is as the Portal Of Free Plugins. Basically every plugin (commercial and non-commercial) that is available to be looked at online is listed on there, indexed by developer, by category and by user rating. The harmony-central-like user rating feature is very helpful, because as you know, there are bazillions of free plugins out there and 99% of them suck. The kvr user ratings are a good way to sort out the ones that aren't worth downloading (i.e. almost all of them) from the ones that are.

TUTORIAL:
-Go to the link above.
-Pull down the pulldown for Quick Developer Links
-scroll down to "digitalfishphones"
-download all of the free plugins on that page, all of which were made by one of the programmers that programmed Magix Music Studio and are really worth downloading.
-try not to spend the rest of the day looking for the best-sounding free software compressor* or free synth or free phaser or free multiband limiter.

Note: Always do a system restore point before installing a shitload of free plugins.

Anyways, that site is a really excellent resource.

*If you followed the tutorial, you already downloaded the best free compressor, Blockfish.
