Hah... wish it was me! That particular guy (5.3 MB/s) was on a university connection.

Those figures you see are speeds that others are downloading at... My Megapass Lite package is capped at 412kB/s. Extra 10,000 won gets me up to 800kB/s something but 400kB/s is OK enough. Can do a 700MB file in under an hour easy...

Point is, with the right pipe the speeds are there... unlike someone was suggesting!

They fly amount each other and kill my upload. 4000 kB/s is pretty good though.


Hmm... look what i just saw somewhere...


You don't seem to have much idea of what you're talking about...


Must be over your head than. 4MB d/l is pretty good. I hardly think you hit 7.7 on a home connection.. ps those type of drugs you are smoking are illegal in Korea (unless you share)

Which has be broadest collection of films. I watch a lot of old, off-the-beaten-track movies and don't wanna shuffle through several torrents to find the one I'm looking for.

My Hanafos connection can peak at around 8mbps. Remember, it's all about the internet speeds of those uploading to you. In Korea, everybody has lightning fast internet. It's just that when your sources are outside Korea...it.....all.....slows....down......

Typically, I start with www.torrentz.com which is basically a torrent search engine that scans several other torrent sites. Other than that, I seem to find pretty much anything I am looking for on www.mininova.org Demonoid is great for sports-related stuff, for sure.

Just a hint for blackcats...if you try back often enough, you'll get the chance to create an account. They ax accounts at times. I visited the site four times through the day yesterday, and the option came up twice. However, be fast and don't use hotmail or yahoo...gmail is fine.
