here are a few good ones that are very fast, safe, and reliable.



itunes
beatport
kompakt-mp3

File-sharing programs suck these days IMO. I use a small number of HTTP sites that always feature the latest movies, apps, games, and so on. If I have to use a program, I'll usually try Limewire.


Posted by afterhrsgurl on Jan-24-2008 22:54:

if i had to chose between the two i'd say bearshare

dont act like you dont know the deal

you get what you pay for.

Limewire and Bearshare are full of fake apps and fake music uploaded by the recording industry themselves.


Pay 15$ / month and go with newsgroups. Guaranteed maxed out connections for all your downloading needs.

I get consistent 800 Kb/sec and download about 2gigs in about 30 minutes.

and I forgot to add, with newsgroups, split the cost among 4 or 5 friends, costs then 3$ each per month..and have all the movies/music/games/applications you need.

Or you can just find invites to private torrent trackers and then you're set...


Posted by azianice on Jan-25-2008 00:15:

true, although demonoid is now dead (closed to Canadians) and if you're lucky enough to find someone who can invite you, and trust you (since if you screw up and don't upload, you and the person who referred you is banned).

Plus, Roger's throttles torrent downloading, Bell does too, but there's a way to get around it. Roger's you're just SOL.

You also have to worry about overage charges from your ISP for the amount you have to upload (to keep your ratio on private torrents).

True...its good if you can get one.

I'm downloading a file right not at 600kbps which is pretty good i think. It also helps that my neighbour doesn't know how to encryp their router next door...ahha

Demonoid is not the only one. And for music it sucks, there are waayyy better private trackers for music, but if you're out of the loop, you're out of the loop.

And sharing is caring. It's not that hard to keep a 1.0 ratio.

The way to get around is as simple as clicking "encrypt torrent data" in UTorrent. Not really a problem at all.


Posted by smuncky on Jan-25-2008 00:37:

uTorrent and DC++

that's true, there are other private torrents out there, but like you said, if you're out of the loop, then ur out of the loop .

In any case if you wanted to get the files without being in the loop..you know if you're not popular, or "cool" or if the internet gods deemed that you were on a need to know basis and you don't need to know,

then you can pay a very minimal fee for guaranteed consistent downloading with no fake files. The first month my friend told me about this server I went crazy..downloaded 320 GB in 1 month. Bell hated themselves because they are only allowed to charge a MAXIMUM of 30$ in overage charges..haha

Posted by smuncky on Jan-25-2008 01:23:

torrentleech is my source for everything besides music. although they did post a lot of sets before.

music i either get from the d/l thread here (for sets) and for tracks i use DC++.

btw that's a weak ratio depending on how long you've been on the site.

Ratio: 1.663 Uploaded: 1.98 TB Downloaded: 1.19 TB in 2 years.

soulseek ftw

if you think it's just another kazaa clone that will fuck up your computer (i was sceptical myself when it was recommended to me), you're wrong... give it a try
