The ultimate P2P server?

[Kirobaito]

I think it's pretty damn stupid to put your favorite artist out of business just to save a few Pounds/Dollars. I mean if they make that great of music they deserve for their "best" fans to at least give them a few dollars in their lifetime.

My favorite artist is dead, so I really find no guilt in taking money from the hands of the record label that cut him (RCA).

Admittedly Limewire is more user friendly, but I find Soulseek better in pretty much every other respect.

I use limewire, I download songs all the time not once was a single file infected.

Soulseek is the biggest heap of crap I've seen for a P2P program, it's badly laid out, you cannot divide the search into types and it doesn't tell you what type they are.

Soulseek used to have lots of rare stuff, but it's gotten worse and worse. Right now I only use DC++ and Emule.

It does tell you what type they are, and it does let you divide the search into types. It says right below the search box how to do it.

the layout is <img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif">, the whole system is crap it took 3 hours to download a song! I'm sticking to Limewire.

[TheAbominatrix]

It's difficult for some people, yes.

And download times have nothing to do with the server, it has to do with the two people the file is transfering between, you know that.

[Shoden]

but I tried more than once to actually dload I just hate it's layout Limewire is alot better.

I dloaded 52 episodes of an anime from there.

[TheAbominatrix]

Then you were downloading from people with poor transfer rates. It says their kbs right next to the download, so you know how much you're getting. If you download from people with better rates, it'll go faster.

And yes, the layout can be difficult for some people, it works better for advanced users.

I've downloaded entire series from SoulSeek as well, again, it depends on who your downloading from. Not to mention that BitTorrent is always better for downloading episodes.

[Shoden]

for torrents Bit lord is the best, it may take a week or 2 to get a series but it's worth it.

[TheAbominatrix]

Because it depends on how many people are seeding it. The programs are just directing things, the user connections and amounts determine the upload/download rate.

[Shoden]

Yep and Usually the ones I get average around 4kbps Dl and 10Kpbs up. It aint so bad. Better than Bit tornado.

[rubah]

I never find anything interesting on limewire, so I don't use it.

[Shoden]

If you've been stuck with WinMX for 2 years Limewire is a saint.
