Hi,
What is the best bit-torrent program to use? Is it good to use this type of program to upload a Counting Crows concert I recorded (legal to record their gigs, they have a big section on it on their official site).

I have emule, is this supposed to be the best?

thanks

if you're highbandwidth and want to queue up loads of **** i'de recommend ABC (Another Bittorrent Client)

BitTornado is good. It helped me solve a little router problem i had with regards to bittorrent; through its handy green / yellow light;)

but I don't really wanna download every one that has been mentioned, i prefer to keep things simple and just get one. Whats the overall best? thanks!

Ive tried the original client, Shadows experimental and Burst!. Burst! is the only one to have worked for me.

I second that. I couldn't get anything else to work properly. It's just a shame that Burst hasn't been updated in months.

In my experience Azureus

Is it good to use this type of program to upload a Counting Crows concert I recorded (legal to record their gigs, they have a big section on it on their official site).

If you have an always on BB connection, then yes you can super-seed it using bittorrent, just keep an eye out for how much upload bandwidth is being used

I have emule, is this supposed to be the best?

emule is not bittorrent, it uses a completely different protocol

thanks

you're welcome
