Bit Torrent

Unread post by dmfollower » Fri Mar 05, 2004 5:13 am

One simple question(and i'm new at this stuff), why don't people just put video/audio on blazza/blazza k++ where you can get it much quicker?
Rather than spending a couple of days getting something from someone else?
Please slap me if i'm using language i shouldn't be but i'm confused.

Exactly, I hate putting that p2p (ie Kazza, Limewire...blah blah) shit on my computer. Bit Torrent is just so easy too, and I have yet to get dropped or time-out in the middle of a download. Plus you know you are getting the real thing, not some big empty file that you took all day to download.

I usually top out around 160-180 download off Bit Torrent. I average around 70-80 though. But then again, it's a kick in the balls when you're only getting .5 down and you look at the upload and its around 30-40. haha.

Exactly like Evan said , except that it is still based on the P2P protocol , just in a more advanced way i would say , and you don't go wrong when downloading from Bit Torrent , because people would get way too pissed if they downloaded some shit that wasen't the real deal , blazaa etc on the other hand , if you wanna download a song , you end up with a file in movie format , showing you some poor girl have fun with a horse :lol:

the only p2p worth getting is kazaa lite. Straight up.

Bit Torrent works much better & faster, as u don't download the file start---finish.

It's more of likes bits n pieces at a time... Thus allowing you to download from a guy who maybe only has 1% of it done.

maybe you start em late? Maybe you're hooked up thru a router or network adn some ports are blocked? Maybe Your upload speed is too high?

i'd like to think that i start them the day they're posted, at least the ones that are posted here, cos i check the boards daily. i have no idea about a router or something, but is there an upload speed setting that i can change or something?
