3. Bi-Torrent...
http://www.bi-torrent.com/

It is offline right now, probably because people flocked to it. Hopefully it will return soon.

16. Eh, can e-donkey give you 1000 mbs download speeds?
I think not! Sure, I was at school with a massive fiber optic connection, but still. Seriously, i've used all sorts of file sharing programs, and for me bittorrent is bar none the best out there.

20. Donkey trickle
Donkey is good for finding a lot of different things. But if you know what you are looking for and where to find it. Torrent is going to whip the donkey's ass.

10. Is Soulseek better than WinMX?
I used to like the search function in Kazaa-lite, where you could search for types of music -- you didn't have to put in EXACTLY what you were looking for -- you could do a search for "80s" and you'd get a decent list. Does soulseek do this?

17. You can get a bittorrent client for the mac
and there's a certain torrent site I'm a member of, Mac TKA. I think i've got a few more invites as well. You can get mostly anything you need, and people are usually really good at seeding requests.
