IRC
Tips...
:huh: :huh:
newsgroups
everytime is ee one of these i wnat to make a guide :angry: , everyday there seems to be one of these type things
kazaa lite is worst safest
next dangerous is BT, if you wanna be safe join fasttracker
then maybe irc or newgroups, i dont know, but these are the best if you want the files first, usually newsgroups are the first but in no time itll be in irc
and this is not tips, if you had the answers to these questions, then itd be in tips =/
edit: ahh yes the pros and cons, forgot that part
BT
files get here pretty quick, not as fast as irc or NG though
pros: you can dl and ul at the same time, so files spead quicker :thumbup:
i get fast dl speed
cons:
dling off of public, and popular sites, such as suprnova and popular forum-based ones, such as DU or hawkies may get you caught, but not as much as supr
sometimes files may not have seeds (or ppl uploading for the common n00b)
IRC
PROS: files get there almost as soon as they hit NG
fast dls, mostly becasue ppl on 00ber fast edu lines are uling
large and i mean LARGE selection of files
CONS: soemtimes the bot uling to you may go offline, and if resume isnt supported, then you have to start over
if your internet goes off, and resume isnt supported, you ahve to start over
if your on 56k or have slow dl, then the bots may kick you because you ahve not reached minimum speed
Newsgroups
dont know much about these but these are supposedly really great :thumbup:
PROS: files get there first, faster than IRC in most cases
fast speeds, most ppl max out on NG
if you have some rar files, then you can select which rars you dont have so you dont have to dl all over again
CONS:
you hvae to dl rars one by one, some may not consider that a con
most news servers, other than your isp one, you ahve to pay for, and you apy by the gig in most cases, maybe 10 pounds for 25 gigs
only new files are on here, files more than say 14 days old get deleted
KLITE
pros: theres pros to klite? hmm
you can dl one mp3 at a time if you like songs
you can share a folder, not your whole computer
lots of users and files
cons:
lots of fake files
riaa can catch you in a second
can rarely find dvdrips, mostly theres cams or TS
cant dl a whole album
kazaa media desktop has spyware
most of the time when you dl a file, the person(s) are offline so your stuck at "searching for peers" (or whatever it says, havent used klite on ages)
edit2: forgot klit
well i hope this helped out m8 :)
what teh feck, no ones moved this?
