probably been discussed before but I was wondering what programs people use to download a few tunes etc

 

I tried winmx but it is a pain in the ass I know its free but I like it when I can actually down load things. not to sit in a queue only for the download to be turned red for me or turn red anyway even if theres no queue.

 

the amount of times it turned red outweighs the amount of successful downloads 6/1,,

 

Im sharing files aswell so its not as if Im a leech or whatever they call you..

 

I cant beleive so many people satisfy themselves so much over rejecting you from downloading there 2mb mp3.. I bet they feel like theyve took on the world :xxx: Im not even gonna try to download a dvd

 

sometimes I get an ok connection but sometimes its low..

 

Im on an adsl 256k connection at work and a 576k connection at home I could have done something wrong but dont think I have...

 

if anyone can help me with winmx Ill carry on trying that otherwise any thoughts?? or other programs

I have used winmx, kazza, also http://www.easynews.com but its http://www.vip-torrents.com for me as I also have a 576 k connection, so far it is by far the best site I have found for downloading music, films, pc games etc. Download the program that runs everything from this link http://www.bittornado.com/ and download, easy as that.

 

HTH Cheers John Crisp

thanks everyone Ive tried live wire now and it does seem ace

 

:dance:

Bearshare isn't bad either, but get bearshare lite!
