Re: Opinions on overnet
I wasn't a great fan when I used it.
It had a few more "specialist" type of files. And there was a couple of those EDK links which made it usable.

Re: Opinions on overnet
Kazaa Light for mp3's and Bittorent for movies/software seems most effective for me.
I have no idea why I am saying this but I just do.

Re: Opinions on overnet
thats the thing.
you dont 'get' bit torrent as such.
there are many clients for it, some better than others.
once you have one, you just download small .torrent files in your browser, and open them.

Re: Opinions on overnet
so im the stupid.
i didnt even realize that mldonkey already supports bittoret. i dont even need to install anything.
but how do i find files on it now? google doesnt give many results on this whole subject.
edit: MAYBE if i would have typed bittorent instead of bittoret in the first place i would not have asked so many stupid questions.

Re: Opinions on overnet
you dont 'find files on it'
bit torrent is not like other things.
you need a site with a torrent tracker.

Re: Opinions on overnet
Since JammyJim posted a link to Suprnova previously, I think anyone being banned for it would be a bit rich.
Although Mark was being a twat at the time, and deleted the thread I think.
