Users of peer to peer applications are ruining it for themselves. Eventually they'll all be shut down. WinMX? Kazaa? Limewire will go the same way.
Newsgroups may seem old hat but they are THE way forward, the future. Pay a small fee annually to access a usenet service and then use an app like Newsleecher / NewsRover or similar.
Just leeched me a perfect dvd of Final Destination 3 to watch later! If you're on half meg you'll get half meg download speed, if you're on 2 meg you'll get 2 meg, cos everything's held on servers with 30day retention - you're not relaint on the 'peer' to have their PC on or limited by their connection
