Never pay for File Sharing?

[Hunneyballs]

I pay a site £1 (87c) a month and I get all films, music, programs, the lot. Dont mind paying that!

All I can say is good luck to those that want to use p2p. I also have been down that road and just love sitting on a tracker for weeks to get a 100 meg file. Also in UK many ISP's limit your usage both up and down. Therefore BT becomes even less attractive. I want a 4 Gig DVD on BT that means 8 gig usage to include my up and down share ratio. My ISP restricts to 50 gig per month. It is a no brainer usenet wins.

I would also just like to say hi to the forum....

Cheerio

Hi Broadsword, welcome to the forums. Let's all point and laugh at the P2P users.

Just one seed is all it needs on usenet...

i was quoting bit torrent that you would need many seeds to max connection not everyone has fast upload compared to a usenet bot

I was agreeing with you.

Newsgroups are worth every penny a full DVD in 3 hours compared to 3 days on torrents.

For me its not just speed, its fast releases, different content, security, and best of all no uploading or begging for tracker invites

I would never go back to free "P2P" filesharing apps, ngs are a lot more reliable and quicker... Plus the ngs community is more helpful than any other...

I use p2p aswell, but only when I have to. I am registerred on 4 torrent trackers and having a share ratio above 1.0 on all. I also take stuff from usenet and share on torrents as well as posting in my favourite NG. Man I so good I should have a halo! All this on a 384kbs upload and 8meg download.

I would stop using P2P to be honest, will get you into a lot of trouble one of these days.
