rapidshare, torrents, nzb

Newsgroups for me. Fastest speeds and max out your connection. Rapidshare and IRC next best speed and finally Torrents. Never seem to get rerally good speeds on torrents but they're good for older stuff. Whereas newsgroups carry mainly newer stuff.
surely what you grab offsets that tho? it really pays for itself

Newsgroups for me, max out connection and as madnlooney said, it pays for itself. I have been using them for years and never had a problem.

I appreciate what you're saying, and yep, if you flog stuff on, it's fine, and I'm not knocking it, or anybody that uses it, at all... Not sure I've ever flogged anything I've nabbed TBH.
It just seems a bit odd to me, paying for warez stuff... I've always got my stuff free, mainly from access to decent ftps etc, and some RS stuff. That said, I've not really bothered with any of it for a while now, so I guess my elevated priv's will be elapsed now anyway, so access to the decent ftps will no longer be there.
What's that mean mate?

Cheers mate, will take a looksy, and see what it's like, seeing as it's free...! Anything else I need to know about NZB's...?

As others have said its NZB all the way purely for speed i pay 3.85 a month for 25 gig and very rarely ever hit that if we want to watch a film one night its there 5 to 10 mins. Still use torrents for smaller stuff and not in a rush for, its the way forward.
They are usually crap anyway m8. Incomplete posts or missing groups and crap retention. Best to use a dedicated server like Ngroups Giganews etc.
Yes i can second that stopped using after about a week lol.

I agree with you, I dont see the point in paying for pirated stuff.
