Honestly, on KaZaA Lite, why should I share the files I download? I know it is the nice thing to do, but will something differ if I don't share any files?

If everyone think this way ... well you couldn't download !!

and kazaa - p2p is stopped.......


edit...
oooh and you probably will go to hell... instead of heaven

It's well rude not to share, but if you is on a slow connection then i can underetand yout comlplaint...i get the feeling kazaa users forget that some or use have shite connections...all of you who have cable/T1 then remember what it was like to have modem....56K at that! so give us a break, we want to sharem but sharing means we can't download!

Before giving up on sharing entirely, set uploads to only 1 and upload bandwidth to 24 kilobits (that's 3 KB/sec) and less than what most v.90 56k modems have as max upload speed -- assuming even decent phone lines.

A v.92 56k modem with good/great phone lines and ISP support might have 40-48 kilobits of upload bandwidth -- almost as much as it has download bandwidth! So it might be able to handle uploading at 32 kilobits (4 KB/sec) instead of 24.

It's a matter of principles.
As the Going says: "Live and Let Live"
So "Download and Let Download"

It's true, if everyone have mindset like yours, there' won't be Kazaa, because Kazaa is all about??1...2...3, SHARING!

My problem is the other way around. I changed to windows XP Pro from 98SE and now I cannot share. What can I do to correct this? All my files are still there but I am losing my former high rating. Where do I turn on the share feature?
