Hello ppl,

Apart from using K-Lite, I also use Shadows BT and eMule. But if I understand correctly by reading some posts here, there is this app named Shareaza that supports ALL these networks (FT, BT, ed2k) plus Gnutella?

If that is true, it looks like the ideal solution to me, right? B) Or is there a catch somewere, and if yes, what is it?

BTW, in its FastTrack support does it have the K-Lite goodies (PL 1000 etc.)?

I just downloaded it during the night. I'm impressed, I like the lay out, I got some killer speeds although I was downloading audio (about 30 songs) so I did'nt have to wait in que. like I'm hearing you do sometimes for movies. It's definitely worth downloading to see if its something you can use. No adware/spyware ofcourse. Very simple to set up and understand.

So the best combo is K-Lite & Shareazaa then? :P

Well, I just installed Shareaza and it works fine. It has a nice interface, and there is no need to have the eMule and BT clients in my hard disk anymore as both networks are supported.

I said it as a joke before, but it seems rather serious: A combo of K-Lite and Shareaza is perhaps the best solution.

Well I would&#39;nt have known, but I&#39;ve seen it mentioned in several threads. kb&#39;s not KB&#39;s, bits instead of bites. I took it in consideration that speed is about 1/8 of what it shows, KB&#39;s. But when I can get 100 or 200 users on some files and they download in what 30secs a minute I did&#39;nt time em but thats fast enough for me. I download all my movies from suprnova, I&#39;m sure I&#39;ll probally still use it.


edit: oops not all my movies I still download several in klite. :)

Soulseek for music - definitely.

Edit - agreed Supernova for movies, particularly new ones.

Yeah, Suprnova&#39;s the best I&#39;ve found, but I&#39;ve found a few good movies on K++ that I could&#39;nt get on Suprnova with real good speed.

It&#39;s funny, everyone has their own opinions, and everyone thinks there is the right one. It all comes down to what suits the individual and what works best fro the types of files they download. I currently use KL, Shareaza and Winmx - all for different purposes. Tried others but didn&#39;t like them, will probably try them again.
As they say, different strokes for different folks.

@imnotanaddict - Bowie ;) , you got to be kidding. Looks nothing like him.
