Bit Torrent Users....

After a bit of help folks!

Gonna start distributing the Promise/Always mixes etc. thru BitTorrent - meaning downloads can be nice and fast...

As long as ppl share what they download

Can ppl using BitTorrent please give
this a try please...just see what sorta speeds we can get....

There's only 1 or 2 seeds atm..so wont be super quick..but will get quicker the more ppl download/share it

Cheers!

sorted isnt it? i got it off ya

yup - jus wanna get loads of ppl using it mate.

if every1 who wants to download it - gets it with bit torrent..and keeps the files shared...means nice n quick for every1 else to get

Bit Torrent is excellent if ppl leave stuff shared after they download it and aint greedy

how do i share ?

i'll share it no problem

Always wondered what bit torrent was and how it works. Can you explain please Bri mate?

i dont fully understand it but iv had it for a while and have downloaded many sets

iv got bittornado, its good, heres the link if u want to download it lee

In a nutshell..

You get a little piece (bit) of the file from every1 sharing it...meaning that 1 person doesnt have to use all their bandwidth to send u tho whole file.

So if you are on a 1mbit connection and all the ppl sharing the file are only on 56k modems....if enough of these ppl on 56k modems are sharing the file, you can get nice high speeds....if u just had to get all the file off one of them, means slow speeds.

Thats why its important that when ppl have finished their download, they leave it available as a share so other ppl can get pieces off them

Rough guide here too

Btw..

Use this client

So you can build a list of blocked (the law etc!!) ip's...

This way u dont download or upload anything to them....so dont get slapped wrist

if i have the file do i automatically share it ?

yeah i was gettin 28/29 off him last night

iv got mine up now so u may get faster

yeah until u stop the share

thats only off a couple of seeds too mate

as soon as more ppl get it...faster

i tend to limit my upload to 5k/sec....but if every1 does the same...say 20 ppl..... 100k/sec available

its well gud

spot on yeah - more ppl = vroooooooom

i dont think mines uploading out, its stayed like this for a while

if i click finish it will just end the torrent

Mines uploading 0k/sec atm too mate - maybe no1 is downloading from us..that wud explain it...as long as u leave that open tho it's shared...

ps...get azureus instead of standard BT client

u dont have to have loads of windows open for each torrent for starters..all in 1 nice window

i'll download it and share it for a bit... my share ratings are impeccable...

got a rating of 900% on one file, and the file was 5 gig

im just too kind. :angel3:

if possible mate any of the mixes etc that we put up as torrents...like this one...can u leave em shared as long as possible?

means we can get a nice quick "network" going for every1 to enjoy
