good morning gord..

not quite awake yet are we?

i forget the exact comparrison we did, but, on 'friends', in winmx, it was like 1200 different files with mutiple sources on many, many files..

winmx doesn't count the actual files, it counts different files..

your 285 is laughable Razz

Gord, wylde...haven't you dudes gone around enough on this topic? Man....to each their own all ready. Do you really think you are going to change each other's minds?

It seem that different people have different results with different programs....perhaps they can't configure the software correctly or have a poor connection...whatever the reason, people have their preferences.

'Friends" was an awful show...I'm glad if Overnet has less sources for that trash...the users have some taste.... Wink

To be honest I found WinMX to be riddled with fakes and incomplete files. I really like the direct connect setup especially as I now have a few hubs that have people sharing the videos that I want.

here we have somebody with no experience at all telling us what to do..

if, for example, you did try winmx and used all of its options, you would see that direct connect is a waste of time.. there are far more hubs/rooms on winmx than there are on direct connect + the main search area as well.. there are thousands of winmx peer groups not to mention the hundreds of different chat rooms that focus on specified areas ie. ebooks, old movies, sitcoms, porn, etc.[/quote]

Ah to be as knowledgeable as you, I wish I had enough time to study P2P sharing to gain your level of knowledge about the subject but frankly I'm too busy watching some of the 100gig of videos (with a total of 0 fakes) that I have downloaded in the past 3 months...........

I used to tease Wylde for shilling for WinMX -- then I got an attack of conscience and stopped (wylde's a great guy in RL).

I still don't use WinMX, though.

it's all fun... Laughing

i have been using p2p progs for about 6 years.. i have tried nearly all, if not all..

when configued correctly, winmx is by far the best with the most results in my opinion..

sure kazaa might have some stuff winmx doesn't and vise versa but if i had to choose only 1, it would certainly be winmx.

first search is always on winmx, if it is not there i try kazaa and my last resort is overnet.. if it is not on those 3, i kinda give up.. never happened.. there isn't any music that i've looked for that couldn't be found on those 3.. from my experience, if it isn't on those 3, nothing else will have it either

movies are a little harder

tv series are harder still, best sticking to bit torrent for those and using p2p for single episodes that bit torrent does have...

my winmx has been down for about a month due to my firewall, i have just been stealing things off bit torrent so i am unable to actively compare these days and you have me at a disadvantage. i may have been wrong when i said it counts different files but i cannot tell now anyway..

i remember though that the scroll bar 'thing' was about a millimeter thick and there were pages upon pages of files and considering that the search resluts page holds about 50 results it would suggest there were far more files than just 285.

my search results are always collapsed that is the default setting.. i see every file not user.

and yes, there are lots of clips, blooper, specials which are very useful and loads in other languages that are not useful..

i suspect every p2p prog is guilty of that so overnets 285 is actually looking worse and worse.

While "My Friend's Hot Mom" may be hot and count towards the total at the time, I had limited my search to just videos so things like MP3s and other non-video format were struck but you have included them in that little blurb.

Though these days it's pretty much Bittorrent for new stuff, and then everything else is pretty much the same for older stuff. It just doesn't really matter as an overall.

i just stuffed around with edonkey2000 pro... it needs money but damn it looks good..

i couldn't do much on it however, on a search for 'crying nut' it gave me about 30 results... edonkey basic (free) returned nothing.

it has different servers that you can log on to and there is a korean server.. thats where i got the results..

if ya wanna spend some cash, it might be a good investment..

I'd go with Emule if I could. I used it for ages. The GUI is very nice but with a Cable modem from Thrunet now it won't connect with a High ID except on the Korea Only server which still makes for really slow downloads. I've decided there's nothing I can do about this. Am I wrong?
