I usually use bittornado and it starts off around .5 or some shit like that but before long it revs up to very high speeds. Downloading Xbox games usually takes like 8 hours atleast, but I just leave it on when I sleep or go to work. Plus I don't know any other place to get them.

Stop sharing so much... honestly. If you are uploading a ton, then your broadband gets bogged down. -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |

Also, find the torrents with a lot of seeds, not a lot of leechers.

i'll vary between 40kb/s and 3Mb/ps (<3 FIOS)
and having a lotta leechers doesn't hurt, in fact it'll speed you up if anything. Seeds > Peers, but Peers > nothing. I downloaded last nights scrubs episode in 3 minutes. New Battlestar Galacticas/LOSTs typically take 30-40 minutes at most. edit: i'm about to crack total upload of 1TB this month.  I seed like a mothafucka just because i can.another edit: bit torrent's down speed is completely independent of it's upspeed when it comes to seeding.

I have tons o bandwith, that's covered. I've downloaded nearly every ps2 game I can think of. Most of the classic movies Tons of albums I'm pretty much stocked up for software Tv shows only air once a week, and thats only one season a year! even downloading old seasons only kills a few days at a time. I'm out of shit to download!
