where is everyone getting their movies from now? I was using IRCspy and Bit Torrents, they don't seem to work quite as well as they used to. Any suggestions?

BitTorrent, is teh best.

Bad download speeds eh? Limit your upload and make sure their are a decent number of seeds. And make sure your d/l or u/l aint capped.

i only use torrents for movies, so in that case, would emule be a good choice?

I like torrents.

I use Azureus 2.2.0.2

Coach Carter ///// 127kb/s down//// 323 seeds
GTA San Andreas//// 180 kb/s down /// 280 seeds
Area-51 /// 50kb/s down //// 43 seeds
Swat 4 /// 72 kb/s down //// 69 seeds

Use www.google.com, for example;

google: "(movie name here) torrent", hit search.

Away you go!

@ masta420

With ADSL, you need to throttle ( the upload ) your specific torrent task right down.
Any Global Options won't do this.

As for Ports, currently I have Swat 4 coming in on 66666 at 72 kb/s down, It's now seeding, it took 5.5 hrs to come in.

Anything 50000 + is ok.

It's known some ISP's will throttle lock certain ports and there is not much you can do about that.(unless you know how to hack them, and that is pointless).

I'm also on a 3.5 cable connection
