I use both irc [Mirc] and bittorent [Bittornado] and I have to say that I'm beginning to like bittorent better.
Mirc usually is there for the new releases and those who have the new releases are usually really fast and have lots of open slots.
But bittorent is a close second and the que's are gone so you can really start downloading anytime.
I start with irc and if i have to wait in a long que then I switch to bittorent. Otherwise I usually always check irc first.
Also with bittorent, games seem to stay longer (in my case I'm talking about ps2 rips) so I have a better chance to request a game than with irc where i have practically no say.
Overall, irc first, bittorent second

i suppose - but surely, in reality, youre just leeching from irc...its not file sharing, its file downloading...hmm, seems a bizarre concept to be on filesharingtalk.com, discussing leeching
(and yes, im playing devils advocate here - dont take this too seriously ;))

mIRC always has giant queues for me. No point for me really anyway, BT maxes my 60 kB/s easily. If I have about 300 kB/s down I'd be on IRC all the time, however.

IRC all the way , BT is probably the most overated p2p i've ever used (IMHO). My speed on BT maxes out to 20KB/s and on mIRC its 380 KB/s , and its pretty easy to use too. And on BT after downloading like 90% of the file i get a connected to tracker error, totally B$...
