IRC download

[XsnookumsX]

There are no good IRC chans left. It's an old and out dated method. .

tut tut tut,
shakes her head at such a statement.
irc very very much alive and kicking.
and far safer than bit torrent and most of the other p2p out there.

99% of everything i find is either on usenet newsgroups and irc, more so irc now that usenet getting crippled by dmca notices

2 great xdcc search engines are:
www.xdccfinder.com
www.xdcc.me

and this one is good if you just want to browse whats on the bots in a channel.
http://searchxdcc.net/network.php

i use a legit mirc paid and the freeware xdccklipper
served me well irc has for over 15 years now.

have a nice day

hi davib,

irc was never really a p2p system, it was a scene based system, EFNET was and technically still is the place where all the rips start, then they get sent out to usenet, bittorrent, emule, dc++ etc etc.

the alt.binaries.teevee on efnet is protected by a channel key to stop unwanted visitors passing through.

there are a lot of other servers though that host all the latest shows and movies.

irc.SceneP2P.net
#The.Lounge for searching for files on the bots
#THE.SOURCE is the channel to be in for when downloading

For those of you who are newish to irc, here is a little guide.

there are lots of other servers and channels that are just as good, but since i was just on that server thought i'd share it.

one last tip, if your on a server and the channel your looking for isn't showing up, just type: /join #channel name
noticed someone a while ago mentioned DMZ, so would be /join #DMZ

does take a bit of learning, but once you do, irc is an amazing system to use.

plus with irc it just you and the bot, your not in a ip pool sharing your comp with 1000's of other users like bittorrent does.
