With all due respect, the network is still the best source for mp3s. However movies and games spread far too slowly, and sources are rare in many cases. The network is being targeted by RIAA/MPAA, so its being flooded with fakes, etc. It not dead, but its slowly losing ground due to security reasons and other problems. :huh: :huh:

[loz]

long live kazaa :)


Fuck you riaa

[ISthisLEGAL.com]

Kazza still works best for me!!! e-mules too sloooow.

[SharePro]

Kazaa will be seeing a decrease in users when the RIAA has people arrested and/or sues them.

I think you should all at least share behind a proxy. Downloading is less of a problem, but being the peer who is sharing/uploading, you should protect yourself.

Unfortunately, Kazaa does not support proxies.

:rolleyes:
hi there !
99% of my files are software and the latest software at that.
there are lots of sites that say we have it, dl from here.
whenever i try them, they either don't have it, or my
pop up killer is working overtime.
i always end up getting it from K++
i don't mind waiting for it, and being on cable
it is always quick. i always share, and i don't give
a horses continental who is dl from me(fileshare ect)
K++ will never die(i read that somewhere)
regards
m8t :blink:

How much did riaa pay you to post that??? there not going to do anything apart from try and scare us all, plus out side the usa they are power less!! :D

[stoi]

well i stopped using kazaa long ago, not because of the RIAA etc, i couldnt give a shit about them, its just that there is a lot better out there if you know where to look. if your after avi movies and seperate mp3 songs then stick with kazaa but if your after the latest svcd, full albums and the latest console games then you have to look elsewhere.

Some people would find that remark highly offensive.

Please explain how someone having Aids would cause them not to think correctly.

Im sure many would appreciate if you thought about what you have written before pressing the 'Post' button.

I'm all for getting your point across in inventive ways but that was just uncalled for.

I dont have aids myself but i know someone who does so please have some consideration to others

[MetroStars]

Longdong yes i do Apologize and will change the post

[Mutt_Head]

are there any programmes like kazaa made just for broadband or fast connections coz im getting fed up of getting stuff from the measly 56k'er

LongDong, if we have to constantly censor ourselves, this isn&#39;t much of a message board.

And if you&#39;re easily offended, perhaps the Disney message board might be more to your liking. I hear they trade Mickey ears there.

thanks for backing me up shotglass -- but what i said was nasty

But Metro...

Not true, though I&#39;m not wasting my time with your one liners.

That was more my point, thanks.

There are better venues out there unless your to LAZY to find and use them, and are simple minded and can only use KaZaa.

adthomp...

if kazaa goes something else will ocme
Another one liner, well there already is, wake up.

I would like someone to argue the point with me that you would br better off getting software on KaZaa then using ShareReactor with Shareaza or eMule. Also getting new releases on KaZaa is a JOKE and a half. Security also appears to be a joke and if the folks at Sharman had implemented something like PeerGuardian for the public at large, more users migt feel a little better. Security like PG should be know to all KMD users as well, not just those that hunt it down.

Don&#39;t get me wrong, I&#39;ve loved KaZaa for years, but the truth is REALITY, and KaZaa is due to change drastically for the worse. Just read HERE (http://www.klboard.ath.cx/bb/index.php?act=ST&f=13&t=40153&st=0&#entry292850) and HERE (http://www.klboard.ath.cx/bb/index.php?act=ST&f=13&t=41731). KaZaa may not yet be done, as even I still use it, though it is not what it used to be and has a very dim future for users such as us.

It seems my feeling are not so unique as MetroStars seems to be losing ground with only adthomp to unite with.

Oh, and my original, now FAMOUS post is HERE (http://www.klboard.ath.cx/bb/index.php?act=ST&f=13&t=38972&hl=farewell)

[shotglass]

Yes, that would about cover you ... you&#39;ve resorted to referring to your own quotes.

You&#39;re just not that big a deal. And you MAY let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.

[musicmaster]

I wonder if Adthomp thinks he has enough posts yet.....probably not......therefore I will tag behind him right now and catch up NOT.... anyways,,,,,if for some reason kazaa or the more friendly version LITE ever got shut down....a new one would pop up.


Does anyone remember the days of Napster? I sure do, and I thought it was the greatest thing since sliced bread. And I also thought it wouldnt shut down. didnt matter... it really didnt.........just the name.... we have lots of other better programs that do more than it ever did. Nap was just a stepping stone as it could be called.......and we have plenty of others to follow in the footsteps of that very innovative and controversial app.

Anyways, I am out. L8

Lets not get into a flame war here.

If however you did not find that comment uncalled for then perhaps you are still developing your concience and YOU belong at the disney board. Perhaps you would see differnetly if you knew someone who contracted the disease or even contracted it yourself.

He removed the comment so the subject is closed.

Thanks to metrostar for removing it.

[shotglass]

No, really, longdong, I wouldn&#39;t. Don&#39;t project.

Well, no I&#39;m not going to argue FOR the fastrack network. I&#39;m not a big downloader of software, mainly because I don&#39;t trust it from kazaa - but also because I have what I need, I&#39;m not a big gamer, and for utilities, there&#39;s a lot of very good freeware (and of course "free trial" versions) out there.

The big problem is getting users onto it. Kazaa is the infamous filesharing utility, and the most popular. Hell, AOL is one of the most popular ISPs, that doesn&#39;t mean it&#39;s the best - just that it&#39;s hard to get people to change. Thus there&#39;s a helluva lot of good stuff still to be had on kazaa, but also a lot of fakes (which can be avoided with a little effort).

eMule is a fantastic setup, sharereactor is a great accompaniment to a great network.

Someone said it&#39;s slow. Well, yes. Mostly because of the waiting. Needs more users. So I do use fasttrack less than I used to - I use emule a lot more these days because the time is right. I&#39;ve even started using piolet for some mp3s, but I&#39;ve not made my mind up about that yet.

But why not advance? Why not move on? Kazaa/lite is not forever, neither should it be. Progress is what it&#39;s about, and whilst some people have done an excellent job of producing better fasttrack clients then Sharman&#39;s effort, K-lite is only as good as the network it uses.

WTF are talking about, use KaZaa all you want. In REALITY this is old news, and if KaZaa is your only p2p program, your clueless, thats all.

[iamtheoneandonlyone]

Kazaa Lite isn&#39;t dead. That person may have been talking about the fact of all the fake files that are ruining Kazaa Lite. Kazaa Lite is growing, not dying.

[jetje]

My thoughts on kazaa...

It is not dead, it is still there. but it has it problems.

- leechers
- fakes (but there for use the verified sections)

What i think is the biggest problem for filesharing...

We all like speed, therefor we&#39;re looking for new better ways.
people start using all kind of p2p programs, that means hardly anyone is giving the max ul speeds they have to kazaa. That just mean more sources give far less speed. programs like bittorent require ul speeds for good dl speed. More and more people are starting to use those stuff.
We&#39;re all on a goldrush for the best new files and the biggest dl speeds. We only seemto forget that we all have to ad speed into the system to get it back... ;)

[wazaa]

Ill keep downloading music, even if the RIAA&#39;s not bluffing. who gives a shit.fuck them. ill take that chance, or bluff, to get arrested, who gives a shit.

come and arrest me u fucker&#33;&#33;

There are just as many KaZaA users as there were when I first started using it.

The introduction of the next version of K-Lite will see even more people using K-Lite.


It is most certainly not dying.

The Kazaa numbers have bin the same since i first installed it.... It has never droped below 4Million

Hmm, I do see your point, BUT

I do use other sources for new stuff because of all the fakes and BS on kazaa, and leave running for a while to help that network grow. Then I open kazaa and watch it fill my upload slots.

So if that isn&#39;t giving back, I don&#39;t know what is

once again......owned ;)

[smellycat]

I use to love kazaalite but have moved on to better p2p programs.

kazaalite is based on kazaa.
No matter how good you make kazaalite, it is still based on kazaa,
and kazaa is a crap program.

It&#39;s hashing system is weak and flawed, leaving a 300k window unhashed.
Thus "verifieds" mean jack shit, corrupted files are shared, etc.

It also keeps "hashing" all the files, thus discouraging large shares.
I&#39;m sharing 150Gb on one P2P program. I couldn&#39;t do that with kazaa(lite).

The supernodes group different size files, thus leading to the
"mp3 reset" problem

The motives of the owners are for financial profit and not for the benefit of the P2P community.
Sharman are trying to make FastTrack as a network for DRM.
