Never pay for File Sharing?

Ahh yes, I see your point. Quite true :)

Yea and the warning has a good purpose, especially to noobs as rossco said,
It is true BUT that message is meant for n00bs to filesharing who may see the ads for kazaa gold and other things then go out and buy it which is NOT worth any money.

If you get speeds like that cerote, I might even sign up as those speeds are incredible! :w00t:

Thanks
 
I would never go back to free "P2P" filesharing apps, ngs are a lot more reliable and quicker... Plus the ngs community is more helpful than any other...
 
24 bucks a month for unlimited DL!
Why pay even two bucks a month:D

For example: how long would it take to DL a 4 and a half gig movie on usenet. it takes me two to three hours on bittorrent
 
i get speeds of about 1.3 mega BYTE per sec very quick as i have a 10mbit connection. The only thing is that bt quite often has stuff i cant find on usenet so i use that for most of my dl, but if i want something quick and its big i use usenet, much faster, although i do get 700kBps usint good torrent ratio site as well

I use p2p aswell, but only when I have to. I am registerred on 4 torrent trackers and having a share ratio above 1.0 on all. I also take stuff from usenet and share on torrents as well as posting in my favourite NG. Man I so good I should have a halo! All this on a 384kbs upload and 8meg download.:01:

I would stop using P2P to be honest, will get you into a lot of trouble one of these days.

Yeh but how long to seed back ? Theres no need to upload on usenet .
plus you do not need a fair number of seeds to hit your maximum download rate .
 
never payed for file sharing.

donations are very different from monthly payments.

only donated once for TL, and i really think they deserved every cent of it.

I understand the risk but decide to brave it due to different content etc. I do not download music or films on Bit Torrent. Some UK TV stuff that I have missed comes out on UKNOVA but I dont use it a lot. I occasionally use other p2p for the odd music track but regulate my upload, rarelly am on for more than a couple of hours.

If I had a choice as which to ditch then p2p would hit the bin.
