I don't know what those apps are you mention. I use bittorrent and use about 5 - 7 different torrent sites and get MORE than enough movies to even watch; ranging from old (OLD) stuff to old stuff to current and new release. I'm happy with the quality and output to my TV and watch them there. PM me if you want specific locations I go to. Go search on the internet for BitTorrent ...

No idea wtf you are talking about. Never heard of those systems to get flicks.

I'd suggest efnet would be your best place to get what you need.

Scared of IRC, check out newsgroups.

Bit Torrent never worked for me. Never got what all the hype was about.

Kaaza or eMule are a waste of time for movies.

Kaaza I agree with you, emule?? not too sure. I've got some great quality stuff, and download times are usually pretty good.

Well if don't have solid sources for bittorrent then. I have over 340 movies -- all DVD rip and DVDR's ... very high quality. I output to my TV and watch movies daily (nearly) and you'd never know, for the most part, that they aren't DVD's playing (well except for the DVDR of course). I've also got more than 60,000 MP3. So I'm not sure why you don't get the "hype." With my solid speeds at home I can get a full DVDR image in less than a day and have 4 downloads going on now and will have stuff to watch, well, more. Plus the 8 US TV shows I watch with only a couple hours delay from the time they air on the East Coast.

Just need good sources

Curious what 8 US tv shows you watch.

For me:

Smallville
Enterprise
Sex and the City
Simpsons
Friends
The Shield (though the season is really way too short)

Wondering if anyone has some futurama vcds backed up - pretty sure i missed the last season.

The only thing I burn is Simpsons. Used to burn Futurama.

800GB were you running a site?

Seriously?

If not...how about sharing the mp3 wealth!

Let's see, I watch

JAG !!
Navy NCIS !
The West Wing !
ER
Friends
The Simpsons !!
South Park
Star Trek Enterprise

Yikes, I guess it is more than eight. Not to even count the other older shows or rewatching TV series like X-Files, Futurama, and Star Trek - TNG.

Yes, actually I do run a site, two in fact, one here on the ROK, and one still based back home. Unofficially of course

Downloading such things is illegal and immoral.
