    Default Torrents and such...

    I was first introduced to bit torrents aboot a month ago and I must say, that they kick the arse of any file sharing program out there.

    Anyways, what ones does everyone use and your thoughts on the concept?

    I use Azureus. The cool thing about BitTorrent is that it can't be shut down since there's no medium for downloading. It's all done through the user to user. I like it.

    Um, I don't know? If iMesh is one then that's what I use.

    The client I use is ABC. I like it 'cos you can queue your downloads, set upload caps that don't affect your download speed, and set it to automatically stop uploading after a certain amount of time. Very nice.

    Most of the stuff I get is from suprnova.org, boxtorrents.com, and animesuki.com. Box Torrents is the best place to get complete anime and manga series because they have rating systems and such. You have to be a member there, but it's worth it.
