Getting better results with WinMX

[Giancarlo]

How do i get better search results? Every time i search for a song like "Call You" by Reel Big Fish, there's only two and they're both "in queue".

Please help.

try trippymx.

but you need to find a older v2.* for it to work.

Or you can try and find some more servers for v3.2 or whatever version you have

That's one reason I don't like WinMX - every user has a long line of queues.

the queues are set by the indvidual users.

Me, i have 0 queues (no download from me) cause it sucks up bandwidth.

it only sucks up upstream bandwidth, up and down are separate.

3.22 is way better than 2.6, i downloaded a server list and it had about 4x more servers listed than trippy mx did... but the network is so big you don't even need to use them anyway, i don't. just search for 'all files' instead of 'mp3 320 kbps'

Yeha i know that up and down are separate.

In have other sites that my upstream goes to

 

[mayorbill11]

oh.

I know, that's what i always do. It still doesn't work.

how much of the song title do you type to search?

just 'call you' or 'reel big fish - call you'?

 

[Giancarlo]

reel big fish - call you.

 

[space]

just do 'call you' or 'reel big fish'

you must learn to speak the tongue napster



right before napster went kaputs, people started misspelling names, titles, tracks etc. they did that to get around the filters.

so you should never search for the whole title of a song, just half, and then you browse through the results to see if any are what you are looking for.

 

[Giancarlo]

I see. I'll try that out, thanks.

 

[Solid Fro]

There is a server list for 3.2?!

 

[space]

yes.

goto to opennap protocals, and click find *.wsx files.

once they download go back to open nap, and import them.

I don't use WinMX - Kazaa Lite for me.

Try using Blubster. www.blubster.com and you will have very high transfer rates.

Wow, that is fast for a P2P download! Only MP3 files, though, right?

Right... only for MP3 files. This program takes me back to the old napster days. Well with the speed it offers.

 

[Ruffryder27]

Yeh But that is one hell of a mp3 file..... 8 mg?!

Most of my mp3's are no bigger than 4 / 5 mg.

Or am i reading the file size wrong?

 

[Ruffryder27]

Oh and i forgot to ask the first time what internet connection do u have? Is it cable

 

[Giancarlo]

I have 56K.

 

[Ruffryder27]

You have 56k!!!! That is one fast download for a 56k!!

Cable. Like Jordan said.

 

[NocturnalPS]

Look this is what speeds i average with Blubster.

 

[Jordan]

Wow...does Blubster use segmented downloading (downloading the same file from several users at once)?
