But where do you think the people who give you stuff on AIM get the stuff from?

...Fayded? ;-)

Either that, or they buy a cd, put it on their computer, and send me songs, stuff like that can happen. Then again, that 76 meg file you sent me, oh, 2 weeks ago, yes, that was pure Grokster :)

See Yuz.
What do Kerry Wood, Mark Prior, Matt Clement, and Carlos Zambrano have in common?

They\'re the pieces to the next great pitching rotation of our time, what else?

Does anyone use iMesh? I\'ve been using it the last little while and I think it\'s better than Kazaa.
Can you dig it.......................

I used Imesh before Kazaa.  The thing is absolutely horrible.  Fewer files, horrible downloading and searching systems.  The program is just a mess.

I use WinMX primarily, cause I usually get fast downloads (150kb/s is my record, thats good for a p2p network), and I use KaZaA Lite as a secondary p2p network, and for a last resort on programs.

But remember this. You can\'t stop MP3s and the whole p2p scene. Its out there. People want it. Shut down one network and 3 more will be developed.

150 kb/s is the best you\'ve ever gotten?  My best is in the 300s.

You suck.

But I rarely use winmx or kazaa or anything so thats probably why I haven\'t got anything faster.

lol my real one is 250 or something that lasted until the file was done.

But i was d/l a video once and it jumped up to 1000  for like 5 seconds, i dunno if it was a glitch or something but i dont count that as a record because it only lasted for 5 seconds or so

Yeah, I got a glitch that said 2000kbs once. Cause I did something with a CS hack that slows down or speed up your computer speed to make it do that. Weird.

i\'m a kazaa man myself, but when it get\'s shut down, I\'ll just go to download.com, and see what other p2per is the most popular and download it, and so on.

WFS420, please, do yourself a favor, and keep those kinds of comments to yourself. I kinda wanted this topic to be a nice civilized one.

Perhaps you are potraying this differently than I am, but if you post like that again, I\'m gonna throw your pitaful remarks into the Wall of Shame.
You think positive, I\'ll think realistic.

Though slower, I use IRC for all my sharing needs,  usually DALnet or Undernet.  I also use newsgroups heavily - they\'re the fastest of all, but less content.

After napster, no single sharing program came out well.  Morpheus was ok for a while, but they\'re all having their problems, with virii, spyware, or just usability.

I haven\'t had any problems with Grokster.  Connects every time, fast downloads, never have any trouble finding anything, and there\'s no spyware.  I\'m plenty happy with it.
