WinMX and eDonkey.com, who , what, that's so 90's.

p2p networks died years ago.

IRC and torrent is were it's at.

if you use azereus, and so long as the album isn't zip/rar'ed, you can choose which songs to DL even by clicking on a link that is for the whole album.

double click on the row to open up the details. click file tab. right click the songs you don't want, select do not download.

i haven't used kazza-like software in at least 3 years....

 

[oompahlumpa]

yeah eff most of that p2p, Bit Torrent for life, then if that fails irc, and then if I am really desperate limewire.

 

[allbottledup]

i use limewire all the time, alot faster downloads then any other software i tried

 

[YouKnowWhoIBee]

I use bit torrents for movie, software and albums, and if i cannot find them there i use ares and limewire. But honestly i havent downloaded much of anything lately.

p2p is 90's but IRC is the new way to go?

sorry buddy, IRC was old to me before p2p programs were ever introduced

 

[oompahlumpa]

irc is og... you can find anything on there, and you will always be able to... irc will never die, so irc > all

my point exactly. now if we had irc-torrent that would be really cool.

I've had WWAAAYYY more luck on e-donkey (for software stuff) than bit torrent. Quite frankly, I hate bit torrent and find it utterly useless. Maybe it's just the nature of the stuff I'm looking for (audio plugins for Apple), but e-donkey was home to way more rare shit. I'm really bummed about that one.

Well im a pretty hefty torrent/irc user, but limewire has been good to me. only recently have i had any problem DLing stuff....oh well, i guess i should probably lay off the porn.

ares works for me for p2p, other than that its BT
