basically the problem i had was nomatter what i tried to download nothing would transfer. every file i attempted to get went to a status of looking... and just sat there waiting. the sample file i had queued when i first started the program was still waiting after 7 hours of waiting in queue and that was for a file that had been posted on usenet a week ago.
if you enjoy it and are satisfied then far be it from me to judge that. after what i feel was an honest evaluation of the software i decided it does not offer as much as newsgroups do. thats just my experience and perhaps i will try the donkey again in the future and find better sucsess.
i like to make my decisions from an informed perspective so i took a look at what seems to be the best peer to peer has to offer. i thank you for your help and enjoyed the experience but it has just re-afirmed my pro-usenet position.
i hate to repeat myself but i am guessing you didnt look behind the links so i just wanted to point them out to you..
