Thanks IGY.  Does anyone here have Pharaoh Monch's first CD?  I cant find it anywhere.

[Sgt PSN]

Or I go to Amazon and listen to a clip if they sell the album online.

Ha.  That's exactly what I do, especially if I remember the artist but not the song title.  Or vice versa.

beef rap, what torrents do you use? 

The best site I've ever found is www.demonoid.com but it's invite only.  If you want one let me know.  Also for football torrents I use www.tenyardtorrents.com. 

The torrent downloader I use is Azureus.

Someone es'plain torrents to me.  I've heard of it but don't quite understand how it works.  Is it basically the same thing as limewire or any other file sharing program, or totally different? 

[Quasimoto]

Basically you download a BitTorrent program.  The most well known one is BitTorrent that you can download from www.bittorrent.com.  Once you get that program you go to a torrent website and download the torrent that you want.  You open up the ".torrent" file into your BitTorrent program and it will start to download.

Thats the most basic definition.

[Sgt PSN]

So there are torrent websites out there for different categories like music, sports, tv, etc?  Or are there torrent sites out there that cater to a little bit of everything?  And I can download stuff from any of them with the bittorrent software? 

Also, are you able to preview stuff before downloading?  That's one of my biggest beefs with limewire.  I find a song I want, download it and find out it's got poor sound quality doesn't have the entire song or in some cases, isn't even the song I'm looking for. 

Also, how safe is it in terms of picking up a virus or spyware? 

[Quasimoto]

A good torrent site will have a mix of everything.  Thats why I recommended Demonoid to seabiscuit.  They have music, books, computer apps, video games, tv shows, movies, etc.   The only thing you'd have to go looking for is porn.  They're heavily regulated and a lot of torrent software won't let you get it.  Thats why I use Azureus.  It's one of the only one's that allow you to download porn.

You can't preview anything before you download it but usually the person who ups the torrent will put the sound or video quality next to it. 

[Sgt PSN]

Cool......one more question........

What file types does it support?  When I download something (music or video), will I have my choice from windows media, real player, mp3, etc, etc?  Or does it have it's own torrents file extension?   

[Quasimoto]

The file you will download will be a ".torrent" file.  Within that file are the actual files.  So basically anything from .mp3's to .avi's to .wma's, etc.

[Sgt PSN]

Got it.  Thanks for the info.
