Anyone know what the best P2P file sharing thing is. I used to use Win MX, then i went onto Ares but now that takes ages to connect. I tried Limewire but it says i need some Java thing. Are there any other good reliable and fast ones?

AFAIK?

And that article's title has me imagining some copper using Jedi mind control on a downloader.

"You don't want to download music illegally"
"I don't want to download music illegaly"

etc

Search warrants? FBI raids?
I'm guessing it's illegal...

merms right

It's harder for them to catch you downloading as they would need to be the one sharing the material in most cases and that would mean they are allowing it.

Isn't piracy if you sell it.

They say that piracy funds terrorist groups...its probably a load of bull anyway

AFAIK downloading movies/games/music/any copyrighted material is illegal.

It's piracy.

From what i have heard when i was on a Law Course was that it is not illegal to download but it is illegal to upload them. If you find them and they are available then you are allowed to download them.

SR don't mind too much, there are a few topics that are about illegalness and they don't seem to mind.

Talking about a program is ok it would only be if you where asking the best place to get something you shouldn't have.

The best P2P to share "home-made videos of your holiday to Berlin" is limewire. Well its my favourite anyway. Just get the Java thing.

The only P2P thing I use is Soulseek, adware free and good selection of files.

Be careful about what you say about illegal downloads here, SR will delete something if you mention you're using your P2P clients for anything other than sharing home-made videos of your holiday to Berlin.
