downloading stuff

just interested in what sites everyone uses to download tv episodes... i'm trying to download some futurama epz but the torrent is super slow. i want to download family guy next but i reckon that'll be a slow torrent as well.

anyways

Torrents

end of story

yeh what hub said, but with a "z"

www.Torrentz.com

I have all of futurama + movies cept for a few eps that have bad sound or something
But 15.4GB * 1024MB * 1024 KB / 30KB/s (upload speed) / 60 Seconds / 60 Minutes /24 hours = 6.22 days to upload on to that shared thingy we have
Doesn't sound to good

lol... i did say torrents.. but its not quick enough gonna take for ever... i'm looking for a site or something where i can download them easily and full speed. obviously this doesn't exist. torrents are only quick if some unselfish cunts actually seed but everyone does what i do and leave once its finished .


oi lunchy upload them all on the site that would be really good kidding... i'm not going to wait 6 days... this hillariously slow torrent will download them faster than that


and btw, torrent site like mininova, piratebay and the one you mentioned pretty much give the same torrents anyway which is the one i have. AND ITS SHIT.

Sounds to me like you've got something configured wrong, or you just pick shitty torrents.

Using a private tracker I have an account with, and even a public torrent search site, I can find torrents for most futurama movies and TV seasons with plenty of seeds.

me thinks its just a shitty torrent.

Rapidshare or something? if your desperate

Me thinks it might be the problem you had when you started with torrents and you've capped your upload speed to like 1 kb/s which would cap your download.

no its not that. it starts off downloading fine then fucks up. ive got it capped at 4kbs for uploads which is what its meant to be. and i was downlaoding family guys epz fine.

don't worry about it i've found another torrent so i'll try that. just don't want to cap myself in the proccess of downloading them so i'm gonna wait for a while.


anyways.

Why is uploading 'meant to be' capped at 4kbs? You must have one hell of a ratio

what i meant was its the lowest you can go without it capping your download... yeah i don't share if thats what you mean about the ratio... i share as little as possible while taking as much as i can... deal with it

your a jerk user

i try to get a ratio of 2.000 for all my torrents, some times i will just open up utorrent just to upload.
why? because it makes me feel good sharing with strangers and my internet provider doesn't charge for the upload like some other evil providers do!

yes and my ISP is an evil one... therefore i don't share

kinda selfish but obviously if i was to have at least a 1 to 1 share ratio then thats double the original usage... i've also only got a 12gb limit to all usage download and upload, so it doesn't take long for a few episodes of heroes to take that up, not to mention if i had to upload the same amount


oh well i'll continue selfishly removing my torrent once they are finished and continue to "forget" to thank the kind selection of seeders

small cap is for n00bs... prove me wrong...

Well if we did have the small cap or moderate cap, that is the time that we would actually watch and/or rewatch the shows so thats where streaming fails.
