Well, you could try downloading cdmage, and checking those files before you burn them, it might help in saving some cd's! :)

Or you could just use a more reliable P2P network.

The problem with e-mule and e-donkey is that they are toooo slow&#33; and it&#39;s depressing to see that you are number 1108402384384375083475345 in a queue, so it would take 30 years to start downloading&#33;&#33; <_<

In addition e-mule almost kills the machine, it slows down and you can&#39;t do anything else while downloading.
