I use Azerous for my mac.. Works okay.. Have either of you tried that? If so, how does it compare to Transmission?


I think it has a smaller fot print, pretty much Transmission is a for just downloads. Azerous has a lot of other features, like the whole "Vuze" thing, not sure exactly wh its called. I prefer tranmission seems "snappier" to me


I also woludnt mind a Deminiod Account, I've been downloading just from direct links lately. http://www.rlslog.net/ usually has links where u cna downlaod the latest realease from direct links. Like Adrive, YaStorage and others.

Transmission def. has a much smaller footprint. I haven't used the other, but friends have and have complained. It has too many bells and whistles. With transmission you can download torrent and create torrents, I don't think you need a program that does more than that. Its def. worth a try

And If anyone with a waffles invite would like to be very generous and pass one along to me that would be amazing. Could trade for demonoid, but I'd assume you have that already or don't want it, but the offer is there.

i have some demonoid invites left. if you send me a pm, ill see if i can accommodate your request.

also, if any of you are feeling generous as to sending me a waffles/torrentleech/indietorrents invite, i would highly appreciate it.

transmission>azureus. it shouldn't even be a debate. the fact that azureus is a java program makes it seem like it takes 234 years to start. it's too bloated and doesn't give me the speeds that i would like; if it were up to me i'd use usenet, but i dont feel like paying every month.
transmission is light-weight, gives you the ability to download torrents faster than azureus, creates new .torrents, and doesn't significantly drain your RAM usage.

I'd appreciate it greatly if someone could shoot me a demonoid invite. Unfortunately I don't have anything to give in return except gratitude. tongue.gif


PM sent. Please make sure you seed too. I can get banned if someone I invite does not seed.


I wouldn't worry about Demonoid too much, they're not too strict on your own ratio let alone your invite's ratio effecting you.

Other sites that are more hardcore about keeping things private will cut you down for a bad ratio though. Places like Nordic-T, IPtorrents, and Black-Cats are a few that I know of.

i have whats left of the us court system and the EFF and what not. my school has already shown that it disregards the constitution and hands over any information the RIAA wants because they "have proof that people were downloading music". iirc there hasnt be 1 case that didnt settle out of court yet. the RIAA are a cartel that target people that cant finicially defend themselves such as grannies, broke single moms and college kids. THey also say they have the right to defend artists not signed to their lable which is bullshit. id recommend totally boycotting bands on riaa records if you can or at least music heard over the radio.
