You mean the sites users are always seeding the torrents. I guess that explains the limited selection. Still, if what you want is there then it looks like a decent enough place.

Torrents are awful. I seriously hate having to download from other people and much prefer downloading directly from newsgroup servers. All files on a newsgroup server can be dowloaded at full speed so i can max out my connection and have entire series' in no time.

I know how torrents work - you love your Wise-ass moments don' t you? :)

My point was that to keep big files like those seeded 24/7 there would need to be a lot of users and very few leeches, otherwise it could take forever to download stuff.

Torrents rely on other people and since it' s easier to leech and therefore not give up any bandwidth most " older" files are hard to get as everybody is concentrating on new ones. You usually have to request that somebody seeds what you want or try to find it elsewhere.

Newsgroups are more convenient and let you download directly from the server. It' s the same speed for all files and multiple files downloads won' t choke the client out like torrents do.

I just don' t like torrents. I wasn' t trying to be a smart ass.

I wasn' t utterly serious there , but you do like to be a smart ass :)
