The torrents I use (despite high seeders low leechers) always seem to give me less than 50kb/s, I have no idea why and have given up on fixing it. Rapidshare 800kb/s is just - easier.
Opera is nice, but the torrent downloading part of it is fucking terrible. I always set mine to download with Bittorrent/uTorrent/etc.JoshP wrote:

I only TPB-download stuff I absolutely can't find elsewhere, but articles like this still make me go 'YARR.'
Never really tried it becuase I already used uTorrent and uTorrent is awsm, so same lolzFinray wrote:

Plus it downloads stuff sequentially (piece 1, then piece 2 etc) in Opera, wtf?
I had the same problem limiting upload speed to 100kb/s when downloading fixed it for me. When not downloading it's limited to 600kb/skylef wrote:

Ah yeah, I always restrict my upload to 6kpbs (out of an available 32) on pub torrents, otherwise the download speed is fucked. Try it.tupla_s wrote:

My roommates download stuff over torrents. I don't watch the stuff. My ISP warned me already about the bandwidth they are using and almost got my internet shut off.
Is it stealing if the artist doesn't want you to view their content without paying...yes. Do you care, probably not.
When you hear the 'music studios' making a Billion on 'The Dark Knight' you rationalize that is ok for you to download the movie because they already made enough.
/sigh
I'm a programmer and I know what it takes to make enterprise level software. When someone copies my company's software it hurts me directly.
It basically come down to 'respect'...do you respect someone else enough not to go against their wishes.

Isn't a little boring wading into arguments with a supercilious attitude towards Internet piracy? It's fucking everywhere, you've lost the battle before you even open your mouth. Fair enough if you don't want to partake in it, that's your choice, but in my opinion one does become a "moral fag" when they take it upon themselves to extol the virtues of buying music from the artists. I know how to support artists, and it is up to me to make that conscientious choice when I feel as though the artist merits it.
On topic: the choice and quality of Rapidshare rips sucks compared to torrents, sorry. I don't care what speeds you have to endure... I'd rather wait a day longer for my free music if it eventually reaches me in high-quality, rather than to settle for an 80Mb Rapidshare .RAR in shitfest <192kbps quality.

its not about supporting artists.
its about NOT stealing dude....bottom line.
if that belief labels me a "moral fag" then so be it.
ive been called much worse by much better.

parker refer to your user title
I'm not calling you anything, I'm just merely pointing out that you're donating to the black-holes of pointlessness in Internet debate by pointing that out. No one cares. There's no morality on the Internet, there's no sense of conscience or right and wrong- most people are easily disposed to commit a technical 'crime' if it only means clicking their mouse cursor. There's no real sense of guilt, so I don't blame them, and no amount of public objection in Forum threads is going to change anyone's opinion.

oh no, i didnt want that to sound like i thought YOU were calling me names.
max tried, but lacked the balls. 12/f/taiwan actually pulled it off.
and fair enough, i suppose that there is really no morality on the internet. i wonder how many people in this thread would encourage someone to kill themselves on a webcam?
now thats a scary thought.
and i didnt even really come into this thread starting shit...
motherfuckers brought me into it.
and im not whining...just defending my beliefs

Yeah, my friend ripped some episodes of Generation Kill from a DVD and gave them to me with a flash drive. Then when I RS'd the remaining ones they were the exact same quality.Peter wrote:

Kind of ironic that they just released a file sharing (between friends and family) application for the beta.Flecco wrote:

Mentioned multiple times by multiple people in this thread already... generally regarded as the best private-torrent sites for music, rising out of the OiNK's old community.
