eMule sucks!

[natemail00]

eMule is just plain awful.

 

[Bitski]

doesnt work anyway, half the time it never connects.

 

[WuvNmyEarl]

Of course!

 

[Marianne M]

eMule only good for rare things that nobody download.

 

[Xi-Sung]

I found out that if you don't cap your upload speed, you get connected faster and get better download speeds... It may be some kind of policy?

 

[halofan_sd]

Emule is good for old stuff, but torrents for fresh.

 

[Tyler]

at least somebody does

 

[Terry C.]

Like orfik said it's very good for rare stuff... All the music albums I can't find on Waffles, What.cd, Pedro's I search them on eMule and many times I do find them...

Its a feature to prevent leechers on the network.

eMule is perfect to find rare and old stuff, but it takes around a week to download something because it barely connects to any peers, and people cap their upload speed... Good luck if you download at more than 25k/s for more than an hour! And thats if you stay connected to a peer for longer than an hour! 05-01-08 07:07

atm i have just 1 file downloading, put 10KB/s upload limit since i am uploading in several trackers:

eMule - Server: www.UseNeXT.to (80.252.110.146:4661) - Down: 270.3KB/s - Up: 10.0KB/s - Queues: 86 - Total DL/UL: /

 

[Pepee]

I like eMule

If you don't know my name, you don't know torrent sites

I don't know your name, and I know torrent sites.

Correct, BitTorrent is a file distribution system using peer-to-peer.

eMule/eD2k is a global, decentralized P2P mesh w/ search etc.

You can get pretty good speeds, but only if you let it work for many hours, ideally 24/7, and many files at once is also a good idea.

 

[poori]

Yeah, I know, low speeds, wait one day to connect, but I do find rare stuff there, and in ape or flac...

 

[~Carrie~ has 5]

Is the consensus that BT has replaced all of these other p2p clients/networks?

 

[acer]

Well i used to use it...it gave me a lot when i first started with file sharing...so i wont say anything against eMule...when you learn how to use it is not that bad

When you learned how to use BitTorrent,and if you have a lot of the good trackers well....

 

[MJbabyy<33]

I find emule indispensible for old stuff, i use bittorrent mainly for new stuff

 

[randomtigers]

You can get anything with Emule , but the speed isnt good at all

 

[TonyJ24]

Yeah, I know, low speeds, wait one day to connect, but I do find rare stuff there, and in ape or flac...

i agree

 

[Blaster XL]

well with the speeds, if you let it run 24 hours you usually get as much as you give

if files are rare you can't give then yeah it might also be slow but at least it's available at all

Emule is only good for really old hard to find files & asian stuff. In fact, I've managed to grab some old tv shows not available on neither BT/rapidshare. Emule does not suck, it's just past its time of glory. Back in kazaa days, Edonkey was way superior to kazaa in every way and now everyone had moved on to BT. But in few years, it'll probably be something new, and the same people will say BT sucks..
