    I use any method i can to get the file i want , Rapidshare over 2 megs a sec , newzgroups over 2 megs a sec , worth paying the little to get the file u want @ great speeds , torrents are usually my last resort even tho the speeds have improved , so i could nt really choose any in the poll , the prob is now i find , im sure im not the only person , but u find urself downloading just cos u can

    Those who know me will know I'm a rapidshare guy
    If you check all the links first with flashget or internet download manager, I don't think the others can touch it

    there is a way round the ratio 1.0 as well m8, get a programme called ratio master, does wonders, you can use it to upload @ what ever speed you want to give you a better ratio and fools the torrent forum you use.

    you can get ratio master here
