Someone already beat me to it haha damn. I've never really used Demonoid in the past, plus since its private & public you can get fucked up pretty
easy by the sound of it.
What have you got from it?
Music: Oink, Kerrazy
TV - BitMeTV
Apps/other - hardly get em, but public sites generally
EDIT: Just registered anyways, open registration right now so no invite needed.Dave - 8-18-2007 at 08:16 PM

Whats the difference between this stuff and soulseek? Cause thats all stuff I could find and DL off there in a couple hours. Fill me in.JawnDiablo - 8-18-2007 at 10:31 PM
I dunno really.
I tried sopulseek but couldnt get ti to work for some reason.
A friend passed this onto me, so I figured I'd pass it on to you guys if you were interested.Six66Mike - 8-18-2007 at 10:32 PM
I used to use Soulseek nearly excusively for years with IRC/FTP but now I'm getting a ton of music off Oink.
Soulseek you gotta wait for users, queue's and double check tracks aren't missing or all the same bitrate.
Torrents like Oink or Kerrazy are generally full albums and tell you what bitrate, and there's usually always a seeder and no queues really. Its easy
to start a torrent and wait for it to finish, some are done in 2 minutes, others 8 hours depending on how many seeds & upload speed.
Also depends on your ISP and limits, do they count upload, do you have decent download caps? Torrents will have a lot more overhead packets than
Soulseek. If you download a 50MB torrent, upload it 6 times, you've downloaded another 50MB in overheads so that file actually cost you 100MB
download. Soulseek has similar but far less.
Bonus for SLSK is the chat rooms, reminiscent of leeching on IRC servers & hanging in DALnet, EFnet & Undernet rooms.Murk - 8-18-2007 at 10:34 PM

with Soulseek, you can only DL a particular album from one person. sure, you can load up several users that have the same album, but
each file is downloading individually.
on Demonoid they use torrents which allows you to DL an album from EVERYONE who has the torrent open. kind of like old-school Napster or WinMx or
current Limewire. Oink uses the same thing, but has stricter quality ratio requirements.ENDERA.x - 8-19-2007 at 12:47 PM
