TA Bit Torrent Site!

Go download tunes/livesets @ http://h4w.net:6969/

Great site, maintained by a fellow TAer!

You must install Bit torrent client to download:
http://osdn.dl.sourceforge.net/bittorrent/bittorrent-3.2.1.exe

BT is essentially a peer-to-peer filesharing program. You don't actually download from the site but from other people who are downloading! So leave the download open for awhile so others can download!

Have you actually read the thread starter post?

cool thanks.

Its nice to see bit torrent being used, although ive had problems downloading other stuff from other stuff. There seems to be a problem with sharing and distribution of files because not everyone shares. Im guilty in that respect sometimes.

Yeah, I downloaded BT but I'm just an idiot when it comes to computers... hell, I guess I'm an idiot all the time...

Saying you're an idiot won't help you much, you should rather look at the bottom part of that site for FAQs, guides, tutorials:

Offical BT FAQ here
Brian's BitTorrent FAQ and Guide here
Something Awful FAQ here
Tutorial en espa�ol aqu�
SuprNova making a torrent guide here
slash0 making a torrent guide here
Offical BitTorrent client here
BitTorrent++ client here
BitTorrent EXPERIMENTAL client here
burst! client here
JTorrent java client here

If reading these doesn't help, then nothing will.

Good job with the site! I'm actually getting some decent speeds. I was hesitant at first because I thought most people aren't too familiar with BT and won't be using hence the speed would be slow but yeah, seems like people are catching on.

For those of you that don't know what BT is, it's almost like the AG links that we posted in the past where you just click on the link and then the download starts (almost but not quite). It's a piece of cake to use. Just install the client and when you see a link just click on it and it will start downloading automatically. It's different from P2P in the sense that the more people who use it, the faster your speeds would be because you're downloading off multiple sources (but when you finish downloading, don't be a dickhead and turn off your BT client right away so others can download off you too).

I really like the concept. When more people catch on to what BT is, they'll absolutely love it. Also it's much harder for the RIAA to stop.

Thanks for spreading the word sly

Hope you figured it out TheTornado. Please leave your client open for a few hours or when you go out. Let others download, the faster the better the less rapage on my upload
