Don't get me wrong I LOVE Kazaa, but I was just wondering if you guys know of any other filesharing system that seems to have a good selection of movies? I have tried edonkey but it seems to take forever- I left it on overnight, and everyone seemed to be uploading but not one KB dowloaded?- needless to say I uninstalled that program. But please if you know of ant other file sharing network that seems to have a good selection of movies fill me in- Thanks

i like Emule plus, but it's much like Edonkey so u probably won't like it...... :D

EMule and eMulePlus are better versions of edonkey, and I DL the majority of my movies, games, proggies using eMule. You'll have to learn to tweak your connection settings and find a site which list all of the best servers to connect to. It's not the best P2P for music.

BitTorrent is very fast but the selection is limited by what's available from week to week.

I still use Kazaa for those hard to find files. I share most of my eMule DLs on Kazaalite.

U can say all u want about edonkey, but its the only network I could find

Krzysztof Kieslowski's Three Colors Trilogy (Blue / White / Red) (1993)


If anyone does see it in any other network do tell, edonkey is painfully slow

IRC

it has the movies days/weeks before they are available on kazaa or elsewhere.

Bit Torrent also has a lot of movies before they appear on Emule or Kazaa.

if you're looking for new movies, use IRC.

check quality of each release using http://www.vcdquality.com

and find them via a search engine for IRC (http://www.ircspy.com OR http://www.packetnews.com)

www.mirc.com

There is a steep learning curve, but the newest files, with no fakes are all available thru IRC.

IRC sounds real good, and I think i will try it. But a couple of months ago i downloaded a game on kazaa, ran the program(which was suppose to be the game) and it was mirc the program called irc. Not only was I disappionted that it was not the game I though it was, it was filled with viruses!! Trojan horse this Trojan horse that.... Everytime I started up my computer the virus would in the startup menu under Mirc and tried to connect to somebody or something on the internet!! In the process it froze up my pc almost everytime. I tried everything to get kill of it, after many atempts to rid my pc of this virus, it finally subsided. Right now its lays dormant in my pc somewhere until I act upon it. But otherwise I will try this IRC program that you guys speak of- Thanks for the input-
