Best P2P Program?

[ManBearPig]

I had kazaa lite k++, but after i reformatted and reinstalled it, it wouldnt connect. it sat on the connecting message forever.

if kazaa lite isnt the best program, what is? Thanks

Could be a firewall issue, but I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that you won't get an answer from anyone seeing as this is a rather highly anti-pirating community, and file-sharing programs are used primarily for pirating (there are legitimate uses too, but they FAR underweigh pirates)

Kazaa Lite sucks.

Limewire >>> K-lite.

I use Limewire for individual songs, and bittorrent for albums and games.

I haven't touched kazaa in a while, but I recommend Shareaza (freeware) which still gets updated. Even when i used Kazaa, this one always gave me more results so I never felt the need to go back

Emule>Shareazza>Kazaa

howabout just BT?

lol, you guys are bad
I mean, not that I don't, but... ya

 

[jjones]

Wow, didn't know anyone used Kazaa any more. BitTorrent, EMule, IRC. SoulSeek is good for just music.

I saw a poll somone made a little bit ago and it seemed way more people pirated than didnt here, heh.

Limewire is great for just downloading individual files, but Azureus is the best torrent client.

The difference between Azureus (and other BT clients) and KL is that BT downloads are throttled in proportion to your upload speed. Some of the other file-sharing programs do the same thing (eDonkey, for example). If you're getting slow download speeds through BT, it's likely either because you haven't forwarded the proper ports on your firewall (and thus can't connect properly to peers) or you're throttling your upload speed too much. With Azureus though, if you throttle your upload speed at 5Kbps, I believe the download limiter is disabled. Slow speeds could also simply be due to using a torrent with slow seeders or a crappy seeder/leecher ratio.

How can i fix azuerues, specifically. i liked kazaa because i could get single songs and single programs fast and had tons of choices.

Bearshare = Spyware. In any case, Limewire for single files, and BitComet for BT.

OMG. how come kazaa lite wont connect? whats the deal? its always worked for me, but it wont now. any reason why NO version of kazaa lite wont connect? thanks

 

[ManBearPig]

bump

 

[LeetestUnleet]

I'm not connecting either (though admittedly I haven't connected in a long while). Could it be that their network finally went down?

 

[DanTMWTMP]

hmm, i guess i better check out this limewire then. I never really used any p2p progs since I discovered BT.

Limewire sucks. If you want a good Gnutella client use Shareaza. I personally use BT (µTorrent) and eMule.
