yup i share...on Winmx though.

if you ain't sharin' and try and suck off my pc.....i fuckin' delete you.

i get the odd memo sayin'..."what the fuck pal,why'd you delete me?"

i send them a good long hahahahahahahahaha......fuck you if you don't share.

Id advice not using kazaa anymore theyre like selling names of pepz that use it government so they can bust ur ass and put uin slammer . or so ive heard....

I don't share, simply because my (sucky) provider places a bandwidth limit on its users... I can't 'move' (down- and upload together) more than 2500 mb of data a month... :(

I allow 5 ul. I generally don't cut people off if they don't share but there are those times that it really gets on my nerves.

I've got a VoIP phone from Vonage and nothing kills call quality like a bunch of P2P activity, so I only jump on for a minute, grab whatever file, and turn the app off again. But I do share lots of CDR's!

I share about 900 songs and nine videos(no porn though)

Even though I'm not too worried about the risk.. Just reading one story made me turn off uploading.. They are targetting students and I'm moving into my dorm room in a week.. If I got fined any amount like that it would be about the end of my education, because I'd have to work a rediculous amount to pay it back - not worth it when you gain nothing from uploading.. hell, I've even slowed down on downloading tremendously

I used to share on Kazaa until the RIAA began its recent issuing of subpoenas. Now, I just share video and software on eMule+.

it depends when i just wann d/l something fast i dont, but i've had many free file servers (hotline, carracho, ftp, etc..) and ppl tend to piss me off when its a file server and you cant just search for what u want but, i share.

I no longer share due to the threat from the RIAA. I'm a college student, and that's who their targeting. They sent a subpoena to one guy that was only sharing 8 mp3 files! The RIAA thinks that they're going to gain back all of their lost business by suing all of their customers. If they were half-way intellegent, they would try lowering the cost of a new CD from almost $20 to around $10. I know tons of other students that wouldn't download and would buy the CD if they could afford it, but CDs are one of the only technologies that have remained the same price since they first came out years and years ago. The artist make their money mainly off touring, and only a bit off of CDs, so sharing isn't hurting the artists as much as they want to make you think. It's hurting the record companies and that's why the RIAA is suing everyone. The stupidest thing is that they're suing for violating the copyright laws, but the copyright laws specifically implies that to be violating it, you have to be using the music for profit. Since most users are using it for personal use only, and are not gaining profit from sharing, then all it takes is a very good lawyer, and a judge willing to reconize that there's no profit gained, for the case to be thrown out in court. If enough cases get thrown out in court, with the RIAA losing money every time, they're decide to knock it off.

When I did share, I shared on WinMX. The RIAA BS has make me stop sharing all MP3s. I was going to continue share my vids (Simpsons esposodes, SciFi eposodes, and a few music videos, nothing really I can find in stores), but then I realized that RIAA is only starting with MP3s. If their cases don't get thrown out in court, then they're go after all of the vids too. The RIAA represents the whole recording industry, so television eposodes, movies, and other video files are next on their hit-list after MP3s.

I share, but I only have kazaa on when I'm DLing something

I share some stuff but not everything i download.

I used to share all my stuff, but with the recent crackdowns I'm a leecher only

I don't use kazaa, but I keep my bit torrents open for a while after I download something...

I use winmx and allow all to share 50 gigs---only when I'm using it & I try to kill leeches. I don't restrict bandwidth unless I've got something downloading very fast, then 15 kbs. is the only setting on winmx.

I'll admit that I've been scared into stopping my Kazaa sharing by all the gestapo crap that's been going on.

I'd prefer to wait and see what the courts have to say about it before I continue again.

At least, with Kazaa.....

I use bit-torrent and Suprnova, its an excellent combination :)

Yep, around 3000 files.

When I used kazaa (back in the day) I wouldn't share ANYTHING. I was on 56k most of the time so when people tried to download from me it always made things go slower and that was just unacceptable.

i don't have much...but whatever i have i share freely

<b>No</b>...I have a 1.2 GB harddrive filled to brim of <i>you know what</i> ;), a Pentium 1 processor, 40 mb of ram, and a 56k! You do the math. :(

Old school?? Shit, I'm the <b>definition</b>!

I don't even have KaZaA open anymore ever since they started issuing out subpoenas.

:thumbsup:

Same here, it was never something I wanted to do. I tried a progam or two and downloaded a few files just so I would understand what everyone was talking about. But that's where it ended.

I have downloaded, but never installed, KaZaa and KaZaa Lite.

I have seriously thought about using p2p for movies and mp3s, but my usage tends to be so limited that I don't feel the need for the capabilty to share that way. Besides, there are generally other ways that I have been able to find what I am looking for.

I don't share because it's pointless on 128K up DSL. Someone is going to download a 2M file from me, it's going to take hours and make my DSL unusable the entire time. No one benefits.

I stop using Kaaza after it became riddle with crap. Mainly hang in DC hubs, but when I did use Kaaza I never shared. Only becasue I was on a DSL line and upload would take my wonderful 20kb/s down to 7kb/s

I share all of my music in Kazaa Lite. Not many download the stuff I have because it's all underground rap etc.

i share all....when i see people downloading from me that dont share i cancel it.....


sharing goes two ways....

I use WinMX, and I do my bit of sharing, while im connected, and i only allow one upload at a time.

I share but al i have is a couple of mp3s and the occasional porn vid.

i share all my files but i don;t really have much. i use kazaa lite so its better

i share sometimes.......but now...i don' t even have kazaa

I use mldonkey (linux) see http://www.mldonkeyworld.com and yes I do share... even with mine limited upstream (adsl)
