I'm rockin' the TorrentStorm 1.3.0.0-1, and I'm transferring at about 50-75 kB/s. Is Azurues considerably faster?

I am all done and now seeding. starting the usendit now

I'm almost done. I'm rocking up to 134 kb/s right now and getting higher. As soon as I'm done I will post it here and start the yousendit process. I will also act as a seeder to help everyone else along. So if you don't have BT just PM and I'll be more than happy to hook you up via yousendit. Just please wait until I post completation.

I have 2 usendit's going right now. one should finish anywhere from now to the next half hour. You can start PM'ng me but if you PM for it more than once your PM will be ignored. after some members are helped out I will start posting links for the rest of the world

Damn, the internet is so fucking cool.

In case anyone hasn't heard the news yet - Wal-Mart is officially aware now that the books were listed as available by mistake. They are aware the books are supposed to be out until the 2nd. The problem was that Del Rey ships them direct, so Wal-Mart never had possession of the books to begin with.

The good news is, at least in my case, they've arranged to have the books shipped out for "arrival" on the 2nd.

The other main issue is that walmart.com are 'tards and it took their corporate office to figure this out. In case you're keeping score, the books are still available and "in-stock" if you check the website now.

Big props to vasuba for all he's done. The Demonoid torrent has grown increidbly since he's seeded. I'll keep it going all night for the rest of my fellow geeks!

And again, thank you vasuba!

All done and seeding. If you want a copy just PM me and I'll hook ya up. Remember I don't want users spamming my inbox. One request/one user. Anymore than that and you will be ignored.

Im actually very Pleased with how its gone. For the Most part. The users here have shown why I chose to release it here before any other place.

51 Completed Copies have been seeded. of that only 20 have left and not seeding. Very Good percentage compared to the usual Seeder/leech ratio.

Thanks a lot for the upload man, I owe you one.

BTW, I was wondering what the bitrate was for these files, I can't find any info on the site? I assume its around 54 or so.(if any of you've said it before you can flame me if you wish).

96kbs

perfect quality for speech tracks

any news on the yousendit files.

I would do it torrent but i don't indertsnad it at all .

Thanks.

ok, yousendit is done.. will post the link at 7pmEST.

internet mooches and untorrentable folks unite then...

The best (and only) one I've gotten to work is a 10.3 only Mac Bittorrent: http://mac.softpedia.com/progDownload/BitTorrent-Download-3302.html

still trying to figure out how to set it up with my funky firewall though.

if you select a file it would usually tell you

Thanks vasuba.

and thanks borghe for setting up the yousendit.

Just wanted to send vas a big THANK YOU. Got home from some errands and I see that my dl has been done for a while. Just unrarred it and getting ready for the goodness.

I will continue to seed this for long while. Thanks again, bud!

here is the yousendit link


http://s37.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3IUZ ... TKIA5TSTXJ

Finished about an hour ago. I'll let it seed for the night.

As soon as I get a link to download and get the file I will put it on Emule. All the torrent programs are on my husband's computer and I'm not going to botch up his dl's.

The usendit link isn't working for me-- says unavailble.

Lemme see if I understand...

So If I want to help I just leave my BT program running and once I've downloaded it I can be a seeder?

My PC's on all the time regardless, I don't mind.

i am dl the torrent now

not very familar with it but if someone tells me how...when i am done will do a ..seed??,, or whatever

Hey guys. I'm looking for a program that will convert audio (MP3) to text. Can anyone help me out? Once I get it, I'll convert the entire book to text, and we can all read it.

I wonder how many pages we would be on by now if it weren't for the "Heavily Moderated" clause.





Perhaps, YouSendIt/YouShareIt links should be "PM-Only" for the time being given the traffic here.

i'm running it on bitlord 0.56 and am unfortunately on dialup....

anyone have any tips on getting a download past 4-5 kbps?

or is just the standard...hang around till u get more done and then it will speed up...?

Well I got the torrent going for an hour now and I have 6 MB downloaded. That can't be right on DSL can it?

*Tinkers with Torrent some more* It says I have a NAT problem.

I think I may be doing something wrong LOL oh well.

When you guys have time hit me up with a PM to a link thanks

Just hang around, it'll get quicker as you hit more seeders.

To seed, just leave your torrent download programme running -- pretty much every programme I've ever encountered seeds by default once download is complete. Do everyone a favour and share the load once you've got your copy - it's not hard to do while you're listening to it.

Azuerus or whatever you call it is supposedly the fastest bit torrent client out there. However it is resource intensive and a memory hog on some systems.

It's possible to have a extreme leeching ratio with Azureus i.e 5kbs up, 400kbs down.

I suggest uttorent. It's very lightweight it's program files only consists of one executable binary!

Yes, I'm using Bit Tornado-- works very well. Glad he had that on his system!

My dl rate reads--78 ul rate- 37
dsl/cable fast setting

Am I doing everything okay?

I'm using BitTornado and it works like a charm. I set it to Automatic and I'm still able to surf okay.

As for the wait... I'm tokin on the Hashyyyk from Kashyyyk and drinking a Guinness.

Good times.

Thank you BTW whoever has made this possible.

I'm with you Kalla -- a beer and the brilliant work by all responsible seems to equal me up for the next 7 hours...

And it's a quarter to two here in the U.K. Then again, how could any spoiler freak miss /this/?

Okay, I've just finished the download on BitTorrent and I've left it open for everyone else.

This is the first time I've used BT and the first time I have seen an RAR file. How do I unload this file and then how can I convert to an MP3? Sorry for the silly question, but I've just never seen this type of file. Thanks to everyone who has worked so hard.

use winrar from rarlabs.com to unpazk the file. theres 11 folders that contain the mp3s of each chapter

Thanks alot everyone. Can't wait to put it on my Ipod and listen all day tomorrow at work.

I'm more a TorrentStorm kind of guy. I certainly wouldn't mind if someone would PM over a yousendit or torrent link

I provided torrent links on page 1 first post

Hey, keep us updated on that. I'd either like a copy of the text, or just let me know what the software is, and I'll make a copy myself.

Thanks.

And keep seeding, guys. I'm seeing 91 seeds, and 418 peers. 4.5 to 1 ratio. We can do better than that.

Can someone shoot over via pm the usendit link.

I just went to extract the .rar and it said damaged no folders. BT said it was 100% successful-- hmm...?

I've honestly never seen a torrent seeded so poorly. There aren't many dl on the 2 torrents i have but they're uploading nothing

Well, I'm BitTornado now. Doing the "DSL/slow" thing though.

Yes this is the entire audiobook. I was supposed to release it yesterday but due to isp issues it was released this morning.

I have a fresh yousendit being uploaded so if anyone is having problems with the torrent within the next hour i should ave a fresh link so leave me a pm

Yeah, *cough*, problems.

That's me all right.

Hey Guys,

Long time Lurker, big fan of this board.. I am getting the Torrent right now, and wiill leave it on after done to help the cause till moring....

Just a quick question. How do you get a yousendit link? I don't need to DL the CDs. Already done that. I'm sending the stuff directly thru yousendit and it's taking several hours to do so. Would it be quicker to just send a link?

you need to upload the file to yousendit. It will take anywhere from2 hours or more or less depending on your upload speed. when you finish it will give you a link that will work for 25 people only

Thanks for the heads up Vasuba. So when I send the file to another user, when its completed it will post a link that I can use?

it sends the link only to the person you send it to so they would contain links that 24 others could use. to get the link yourself just dnt put in an email to send it to. just chose the file and click upload once its uploaded youll see the link on that page

Gotcha. This is my first time using yousendit.com, thanks for the heads up, vasuba.

Its still uploading. 550 mb doesnt upload that fast. will be soon enough finished and people will get the link
