ED2K links?

**hushypushy** · October 25th, 2003

i was wondering, is it OK to post ed2k links here? obviously NO for things that are illegal, but for fansub anime and things, is it alright?

ShadowDancer · October 25th, 2003

I'm thinking only if the anime hasn't been licensed yet. If it has been licensed, it's illegal to post links.

**hushypushy** · October 25th, 2003

well, is there a good site for anime ed2k links? if it's legal post them here...if not, i have aim, msn, yahoo...

**Kane** · October 26th, 2003

There is only one good site that I know of for ed2k links, however as they also have Hentai, games and lisenced anime, it can't be posted here.

**hushypushy** · October 26th, 2003

hmm i know what you are talking about, they dont have some stuff i wish they did, but they do have a lot....

anyway, another question. lets say i have a file, and i get the ed2k link from it, can i give it to someone and they download it? assuming we are on the same server of course. everything seems to line up there...it makes sense

**Kane** · October 26th, 2003

As long as it's legal is basicaly the bottom line....

Mr. Killjoy · October 26th, 2003

Legal ED2K links?
ahem, do they even exist?

**Kane** · October 26th, 2003

Unlisenced anime is sorta legal.

Mr. Killjoy · October 26th, 2003

Yeah, that's the only legal thing I saw on Emule

**hushypushy** · October 26th, 2003

well i was also thinking videogame trailers, demos, a lot of text documents, PD roms....

Kraiger Drago · October 26th, 2003

Just curious, but what exactly is ED2k? I tried to google for it and get weird spanish (warez?!?) pages, and eDonkey stuff.

their eDonkey2000 Links... you click on them and they open eDonkey( or eMule) and start the download

Kraiger Drago · October 26th, 2003

ah, I see. All of this talk of anime and fansubs, etc made my alcohol addled mind presume ED2k= Some sort of Anime thang.

PVC cement does it too....

**Kane** · October 26th, 2003

Well it kinda is as it's one of the 3 most common methods of fansub distribution (the others being Bittorrent and IRC)

DC's not bad also

(Direct Connect for thos who dont know)

Zapages · October 26th, 2003

I think DC and bittorent own all. Emule is too slow for my taste. :*(

**hushypushy** · October 27th, 2003

ive never tried those 2, however ive tried emule, kazaa, imesh, bearshare, etc etc and the only ones i actually like are emule and kazaa (and each have their own set of what you can find)

Mr. Killjoy · October 27th, 2003

Yeah, I agree with you...
although there is a virus that spreads only through Kazaa, it's called hantaner and it infects .exe files
So now I use KAzaa only for MP3s, Videos and stuff... never for apps

ShadowDancer · October 27th, 2003

Newsgroups is a great alternative as well. I download at my limit around 230 kb/s and don't have to share anything. It's great for leechers. Only drawbacks are you have to get what's there and if you have a request, you have to put up something as well. But newsgroups are great for new anime eps that have recently come out.

If you find out how to use something complicated as IRC (yes its complicated at first) then you can do newsgroups as well.

**hushypushy** · October 27th, 2003

you know what? i may sound stupid saying this but here it goes: i have no idea how to use IRC at all. once, i did a file transfer with (now banned) Gkort on mirc. but, if i wanted to get, for example, an episode of anime i have no idea what to do.

and killjoy...i get apps through kazaa sometimes, i always virus scan em, havent had a problem yet
