I have 528k cable connection, and all I get on Kazaa is download speeds of 0.5-3k.
Its painfull, and I now know what its like for dialup people again.
Can you get hacks to make it quicker?
-
yer going that slow cause of the others persons upload speed, not yer downloiad speed
stop downloading off people using 56k\'s
-
Its weird, cause I normally only download from people with bacndwith 350+
Unless I am reading it wrong, doesnt that mean they have a 350+ connection/allowing downloads at 350k?
-
almost all of the users on that stuff that are NOT on dialup, use cable or DSL that limits them to 16k/sec upload or less
doesnt take much to suck up that bandwidth
-
I use to love imesh cause it would download form multiple people at the same time and put them together when complete. SO much faster. I get pretty good speed with winmx.
-
No KaZaA for me anymore, psyware crap. It\'s all Morpheus now baby.

ya, morpheus does that too. Thats what i use and i have no problems downloading things, i usually check out all the bandwidths and pick any that are 500 and above.

Kazaa... Morpheus... Almost the same thing.
I have \'em both.

Thats what I was thinking, and they even use the same Music City sever thingo.
Hmm, I have Morpheus, maybe I should try it out again.
By the way, does your username on Kazaa get rated??? Like, do you get a share rating or something? Like, the more you share, the better your rate, so the faster your downloads???
Its just that I dont share... Hehehehe...

KaZaA and Morpheus are basically the same thing along with Grokster. They use the FastTrack protocol developed by some dutch guys.
However Morpheus were the only ones that didn\'t include that spyware crap in their program.

WinMX = Best o the Best

This just in: Morpheus Sucks. I turned it on today to find you can\'t download any mp3 over 128kbps. Apparently the music industry and Kazaa have some behind the back dealings going on. 128kbps might be OK to the average user, but I go for full WAVs whenever I can, with a min of 192.
I use Bearshare now. I\'ve tried em all and it\'s my fav.
-
What about Bearshare? Do we not like Bearshare...?
...I posted not seeing your post right above THX...
-
Is WinMX or whatever its called P2P???

thats a buch of crap!
Just go into
run, type in REGEDIT
and once in there:
click on HKEY_CURRENT_USER, then click on sorftware, then morheous.
On the window on the right hand side double click on Limitbitrate and change the value to zero (it should be on 1)
And vuala you can search and download higher bitrate audio
Trust me it works!
and if you want to change it back you just have to change the value to 1 again.
I dont see any reason to tho cos you can search for certan bitrate using morpheus anyways.
And buy the way im not a computor geek. A morpheus programmer told everyone how to do it in their forums. I dont know why they dont enable it in the first place.
Oh well:eek:

Oh my friggen gosh, this is the coolest news. You can download 328bit MP3s!

I dunno, I didn\'t alter any registry code, and I see 192\'s all the time on Morpheus... yesterday I got one at 1411 bitrate, it was 1:50 long and 13MB:)
-
kazaa/morpheus/grokster and the same damn thing, all sucky and slow
yes racer I have that same thing too, 5k is the best I ever got
Gimme Audiogalaxy, much better and much faster
ahaha weltall thats small, i have so many of those
my biggest file is 360 mb @ 192 :D
most of my tracks are 7 minutes at ten megs = 192
average track length = 20 mins :confused: :D
-
kazaa all the way
i like kazaa because of the multi user dl
makes it a lot better then winmx where you go to someone and try to dl only to fail to connect and all
