Hi all
We have in the past discussed a number of ways of downloading files from the internet
Many internet users download music, movies and TV shows from the web
This is not generally strictly legal and we do not encourage or recommend this practice
However the likelihood of being prosecuted personally in Australia for these activities are pretty remote
For those interested the 2 best ways to do 'file sharing' are via Peer Sharing (like Limewire) or BitTorrent (like uTorrent)
The following page has a good explanation of the types of programs available and even some hints for installing them and setting them up
http://www.zeropaid.com/news/7434/Back+to+school+P2P+roundup/#10
I recommend the 2 programs above as good starting points and both are free
Limewire for small files (eg individual songs) or if you are on dial-up
uTorrent for larger files
Does anyone use any other programs for this sort of thing?
let us know
Cheers
