    A while ago my mates started telling me about BT and i was not convinced i tried other programs before but i kept with my faithfull Mule (eMule). I have recently realised what a fool i was and there is a load of stuff i really want! like stargate DVD images and Babylone 5 dvd images!

    But now im a convert all the sites seem to be being screwed by the evil captialist elite...

    Is BT on its way out?

    If not what site should i be using!!

    Many thanks guys and gals!

    BT is not like kazaa that u must use a client to get ur stuff of, u must be using site to get ur files a clients just downloads them for u.
    get "Azureus" bt client and signup for a good bt tracker like elitetorrents.org or u can just use torrentspy.com if u dont want to singup .
    on user based sites(eg elitetorrents) new files get there quickly and u can get them at ur maximum download speed but on non user based(eg torrent spy) ull not get new files so fast and u might wait till u get a decent speed(mostly a well published file will be downloaed at high speed even with non userbased site)

    wow is this like a job interview...?

    Well im on a 512/256 adsl 20:1 contention ratio, soon upgrading to 1mb as sdsl is never going to get to my neck of the woods!
    I normally upload at around 15kb as this seems to allow me to surf while im p2p'ing, and am no leecher.
    I run 2 pcs one for my use and one as a dedicated p2p server that runs pretty much all th time.

    And as to if im going to waste it..... As soon as i find stargate/babylon 5 etc im gonna p2p till my isp cuts me off
