I heard Unison is the client of choice. It costs but there's a cracked version floating around on various newsgroups.

Info about unison

Also there's a free client called OSXNews. Here's the URL http://osxnews.sourceforge.net/new2/

Unison ftw. Don't even bother with anything else. No need to crack, just grab the serial from one of the mac* groups but he can use it for 30 days no problem without it.

yes Unison (connect through SSL) and dont forget to D/L MacPar Deluxe for dealing with .par repair you will need that once you get going but after MacPar check/repair files then you can use UnRarX (its faster unarchiving of dvd size file sets)

gotta say that unison is worth the money. Used it for the 30 days and happily support it.

MacPar is a must, and split & concant comes in handy now and then as well.

Unison is great, but unfortuantely is doesn't allowing scheduling i.e. automatically starting downalods at a certain time due to my ISP bandwidth limits at peak times.

Anyone know of a client that does support scheduling?

Thanks
