I downloaded all (yes, ALL) episodes of Seinfeld with bittorrent. I found it to be a bit chancey-- sometimes I couldn't get what I wanted, but if it did work, it worked beautifully.

Also, WinMX is good-- no spyware. Spyware is evil.

You should look into newsgroups you can get alot of interesting stuff if you aren't limited by dialup.
 
Watch out, bit torrent will rape an internet connection. however, some of the clients let you adjust dl and ul rates.

It is my personal favorite way of peer to peer file sharing.
 
I have Bit Tornado.... and when downloading I always get a Yellow Light with sub par download rates.... I am on a router, but I do not know how to configure the firewall... can anybody help???
 
What speeds do you guys get when downloading of BT. I have DSL at home and only used get aroung 15k on BT and then got sick of it. You also have to upload twice of what you download. I find DC++ much better though. I can sometimes get 80K but on average, I get around 40.
