    Rapidshare for me. yeh you need to pay for it but that doesnt bother me because the downloads are super fast, 2.5MB/s. torrents are also good if i cant find what i want on rapidshare.

    rapidshare and torrents.

    for films etc i just check vcdquality.com then i just grab the torrent from araditracker.com.
    you have to keep your ratio up but the downloads are fast, i can grab a full film in under 15 minutes.

    Newsgroups every time for me, lorrebreaker introduced me to them quite a while ago and I have never looked back.

    Shaun taught me rapidshare and it is better than I 1st thought but I still prefer newsgroups.

    Was rapidshare, but I found things werent getting posted as fast as to torrents. So now using a private tracker torrentleech, and use that. But I do use Rapidshare too.

    Newsgroups for me.
    To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best day and night to make you like everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight and never stop fighting.

    Will always prefer the newsgroups....all other methods are cumbersome and slow.

    Always max'd out using newsgroups.

    Thanks for the question.

    All the best,
