Torrenting for me, I would get a usenet account but with my shitty connection (1mbps) it's simply not worth the money, at all. I bought a rapidshare account for 3 months last year, and had my friend use it with his superior speed and then got it with an external HD.

You gotta set it up in your client first. Most likely there'll be a checkbox in the server settings. Usually you'd also have to change the port to 563 (I think at least - Check the XSnews site)
What client are you using max?

Newsbin pro. I won a copy a long time ago. Been using it ever since and it's been serving me well in the last decade. Unless you know a better one?

ISP's dont monitor everything. The way they find you is they download the torrent and see who is hosting it, than they contact your ISP and say this IP is doing THIS and you need to do THIS. It would be impossible for an ISP to sniff every packet and log it.

I've used Grabit for ages. It's free and it does the job . I used newsleecher for a bit but I didn't see anything overly impressive about it.

You can set download speed per hour in newsleecher. So from 9 in the morning till 11 in the evening download speed is on 50% so my brother has some internets to .

I also like the automatic pausing of par files, and it has some other nice options .

ogg q5 isn't so bad, I suppose, ogg's supposed to do better than most other codecs at low bitrates.

Still not great however.

I can get a single song faster and better using RS or a torrent.

This man has some common sense.

Or you download the fucking album. I hate it when I scroll through peoples mp3s and find they have 700 artists, each with one of their songs. FUCK.

Leave limewire whilst you can. It's horrendous and shit. It's also highly illegal, whereas the other methods are in the legal grey areas, limewire is just ILLEGAL.
i usually download the whole album as Zimmer suggested.  i like listening to the works as they were intended by the artist: full through, from the beginning.  then i throw it in shuffle and mix it up.

but if i need a single song (like i did for a spanish project), i do what liq said.  with utorrent it's very simple to just check what you need and uncheck what you don't.

It's perfectly possible to use limewire without getting viruses/trojans/malware etc - the only requirement is an IQ greater than 70!
