Well, you have good taste in TV shows....

I hope that you get a slightly better download speed on that first one.... 382 hours is a long time to wait for a file... even if it is a full double layer DVD!

That is pretty slow.

I go to bitsoup.org

been there about 3 weeks, and it's good, still pretty new so their database impressive, but not huge. The nice thing is they do quality control to weed out bad uploads.

Hazatude, what site were you on?

At that time Suprnova was still in business.

I would have thought it'd be faster. Could just be Cogeco throttling torrents as they've been rumoured to do.

Give Shareaza a shot, Haz, it's got BitTorrent built in and you don't have to deal with all those extra windows.

Anyone have any suggestions for bittorrent sites for tv shows? I was using btefnet.net up until this past week...

I'd suggest Azureus, many options to play with and keeps it all in one app.

For TV shows, not too many places left that I know of. I use Usenet instead.

I prefer G3 Torrent my self, not Java (ewwwww) based.

Cheers

Yeah, Java is a little hoggy with system resources. Don't think any client as as many features or options though.

Which groups, dear sir?

TVtorrents.com is the best place for TV shows.

TVT has been down for a bit now, but I agree, they were very good.

Guido:

Depends. I generally use http://www.tvnzbs.com to get the NZB. Or you could use a site like binsearch.info. I generally don't use headers.

EDIT: I see you were talking about tvt.com. I only used TVT.tv which was awesome.
