BrandoFan Posted February 25, 2003 Share Posted February 25, 2003 Do you guys use it? Is it immoral to use it? Is it Un-American? Any thoughts? Moi? Y-N-N-Great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxfest Posted February 25, 2003 Share Posted February 25, 2003 Why would'nt you use it I do , i can make a cd for $2.00 including case and cover. Record assholes charges 15.00 to 20.00 for cd sure they do not like it, most of us told them to f*** off, but it was fine when we got screwed for years and it cost them maybe 1.00 a cd to make. If you do not take advantage of the word FREE then go waste your hard earned money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zach23 Posted February 25, 2003 Share Posted February 25, 2003 Lot's of good free porn on there too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete_SSAC Posted February 25, 2003 Share Posted February 25, 2003 Lot's of good free porn on there too. Got that right. Our country was founded on free porno. I think... Anyway, I just got it last week, and well, I'm not a fan of pop-ups, but, I like it a lot. Am I evil? Yes. But not because I use it. - Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjmarte Posted February 25, 2003 Share Posted February 25, 2003 Pop ups? What pop ups? You need Kazaa Lite my friend. Search Google. If I'm downloading a song I listen too everyonce in a while or want to listen to right at that moment I don't worry about it. If I download a whole CD that I end up listening to all the time I usually end up buying it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And also, I'll just use it to get a song (or porn) that I like. But, I'm not going to D/L an entire CD, not on my s***ty dial up connection. I'll buy the CD then. I primiarly just need it when I burn mix CD's. Like the 2-Disc album I just made "Manic/Depressive" but even then out of a little over 30 songs, only 6 came off Kazaa. - Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrandoFan Posted February 25, 2003 Author Share Posted February 25, 2003 What, noone here downloads those delicious DivX moooooovvvvvvvviiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeies? For shame. RE: Ethics and morals: Metallica made a stink about Napster and the label execs- they, um...Well, I am glad we reached a consensus on this complicated matter. Now anyone out there have City of God? I want to have it BADLY! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted February 25, 2003 Share Posted February 25, 2003 BMG bought Napster just recently so I think its going to make a comeback of some sort. Oh ya, I definately use Kazaa. I burn so many free cd's. The only thing is, if its not a big cd, you sometimes get really crappy versions. Typically I'll support the smaller bands if I really like there cd, but screw the big people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathew Posted February 25, 2003 Share Posted February 25, 2003 The small guys aren't on Kazaa anyways. I like watching movies, and ten dollars plus at the theatre is not better than popcorn on my couch in front of my computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrandoFan Posted February 25, 2003 Author Share Posted February 25, 2003 So what do you guys prefer: KaZaa, Kazaa Lite or Morepheus for quickest DivX dowloads for cable connection? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mathew Posted February 25, 2003 Share Posted February 25, 2003 Morepheus is the s*** it beats kaza and ive never tried kaza lite Kazaa Lite is the best, Morpheus is on the Gnutella network which blows. I have regular Kazaa and since it's already to late to get all the hidden crap off my computer it's fine. I used to use Grokster(same network as Kazaa) but they put way more s*** on your computer than does Kazaa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is just a modified install of the regular Kazaa so the only thing "Lite" about it is the lack of all the spyware and crap you don't want. Technically it is breaking the user license for Kazaa but since you are pretty much using it to break the law anyway, who cares? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LowerCaseRepublican Posted February 27, 2003 Share Posted February 27, 2003 I use SoulSeek for my internet downloads....movies, mp3s, pretty much handles anything that I want it I also used a direct connect hub hooked up in our school network but the assistant dean put a stop to that by cutting off our internet for 24 hrs. haha. I can't use Kazaa and stuff cuz our network slows the most popular ones down since they use too much of the University bandwidth. But luckily I am 31337 and know what I am doing to find programs that still work fast. (There is something to be said for downloading a movie in under 10 minutes ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac9001 Posted February 28, 2003 Share Posted February 28, 2003 Oh man, i have over 85 gigs of s*** on my hard drive's. So many games and movies...man i must have downloaded over a 100 games and over 50 DVD's since the start of 2001. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrandoFan Posted February 28, 2003 Author Share Posted February 28, 2003 1. Anyone think Morpheus is better than Kazaa Lite in terms of speed? 2. Anyone use eMule for foereign/classic movies? I mean they 100s of servers instead of just a few like KaZaa... 3. Let's say, hypothetically of course, that a person has DivX file of Crouching Tioger, Hidden Dragon and it is app. 840 MB. Now a VCD/CD-R is only 700 MB. Is there anyway to re-encode it in such a way that the movie fits on the CD AND doesn't lose it's quality? Is there any way to break the movie into two parts for 2 CDs if it can't be fit into one? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac9001 Posted February 28, 2003 Share Posted February 28, 2003 Yeah, its really easy, just click >> THIS It allows you to split a divX file... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrandoFan Posted February 28, 2003 Author Share Posted February 28, 2003 What about VirtualDub? Does it have the dummy default method (the one that doesn't involve f***ing with birates and frames and all that professional s***)? I understand that deconding/compression to fit into one CD is pain in the ass and/or takes to damn long while just splitting it in "half"using VD is much easier? Whatcha think about VD? Thanks again.

mac9001 Posted February 28, 2003 Share Posted February 28, 2003 Split it in half (or more) dont even f*** around with deconding/compression, there's to much crap to worry about and you'll totally destroy the quality . That Avi Spit cal works great, all it takes is a couple of clicks. I use VD all the time and its great, the CD's aren't DVD quality, but there better then a VCR tape. One you split it all you need is a burning program with a MPEG2 decoding plug in... and bam you got yourself a CD that will pay in any DVD player.

I found that not ony are they (the ones witrh really high resolution anyway) practically identical to DVDs quality-wise they also beat VHS because of the wide-sceren format, which doesn't bother some people but sure as hell does me. And the price. One you split it all you need is a burning program with a MPEG2 decoding plug in... and bam you got yourself a CD that will pay in any DVD player. So not only on DVD-ROM, but actual DVD players? Never done that before. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
