Kazaa Question -- What should I do?
 

So I sign up for Kazaa gold, so I can burn unlimited CDs (it seemed like a good deal) only when they sent the purchase confirmation, the link they sent didn't work. There is no number to call, so what should I do? Has anyone else a problem like this with them?

bro what are you doing paying for something like that :(

www.shareaza.com for free

www.itunes.com for pay

Shareaza is awesome. Just remmember not to connect to eDonke. Will take you forever to dl something.

you probably should contact your credit card company and deny the charge. if it is to be a recurring charge, you most likely will have to get a new credit card number, because each month that company will charge your card. your credit card company can advise you on what to do.

thank you all for your help

I guess I'll be calling the bank, then. (it was a check card)

use torrents and you can download any cd burning software for free :)

Torrents is another p2p?

Bearshare.

Yeah, it might be the best one I've ever used. If you need help trying it out, PM me...

What search engine are you using to find your torrents by the way? Supernova used to be good a long time ago.

And shareaza.com opens up the torrent files also.

-Rudey

Try these two sites:
http://torrentreactor.net/
http://www.mininova.org/

I never was able to get anything good from mininova. I've been to torrent reactor before but I can't remember why I don't use it. Are the torrents live with good distribution or do you get only 1 user?

-Rudey

Depend on what you're dling. i've seen torrents with over 300 seeds and more leechers

I particulary like this site:
http://thepiratebay.org/

For Shareaza, do you also have problem downloading files that are based from eDonkeys?

Uninstall Kazaa for starters...
 

Above all uninstall Kazaa from your computer. It's a great way to get viruses and spyware (bundled into the program) on your pc.

Rudey, thepiratebay.org is real good, and so is

http://isohunt.com/

My result for eDonkey is mixed. I would say it's better than torrents though which are completely hit or miss for me. I think it depends on what you're downloading. I usually have problems with files that are hard to find. A lot of the mac programs end up being hard to find. It sucks.

so damn cool: Do you have any idea what sites isohunt is searching through?

-Rudey

I am a HUGE fan of shareaza.com, but I think anything after Kazaa is the best thing since sliced bread.

I also found a new service that is both pay and free and I pay, I happen to use the pay (I don't remember my reasons for doing so...)

LimeWire
they are pretty damn fast...

I still use Shareaza for my BT's, but LimeWire is just gold.

You also may want to look at Torrent Spy, I use this place to get all my programs that I miss from here....it pretty damn great.

I have yet to venture into dl'ing entire albums, just songs...

Isn't it ironic that you are paying to download something for free?

-Rudey
--Limewire Pro is available out there for free as well...

Same here. If I'm looking for general, easy to find files, I usually connect my shareaza to only gnutella 1 and 2. However, if it's harder files to find, I connect to eDonkey. It's a bitch trying to download some of those files though. The waiting list is pretty damn long. However, eDonkey have so many hard to find stuff.

Geek it out and go into irc chat rooms for them.

-Rudey

Got any chat room I can check out? Have any of you guys ever tried DC++?

gee...you think?

don't be an asshole...I just happened to pay for it...there are a lot of things that I don't but for some I do

Do you always get insulted by non-insulting posts?

And do you kiss your mom with that mouth?

-Rudey

Yes I do kiss my mother with my mouth and that is here nor there...I read the tone of the post as condescending...if it wasn't I will apologize for that....

But given the subject matter of this thread and the links that I posted, common sense would tell a person that yea, they know about this type of stuff and the dl'ing paid programs....like I do.

I have entire seasons of TV series and movies, but a metric f*ck ton of music...so yea that is the way I took it.
