Looking For An Mp3 or Video Downloading Program?

By Terry Hunter

Many file sharing software programs exist. You might have one of them or have heard of one of them - Ares, Kazaa etc... They are very convenient downloading programs that can allow you to download all kinds of content with an Internet connection. They are fairly safe if you have a virus scanning program and a spyware scanning program (which you should). There are a lot of these software titles, but which is best? These are things you should get in a good P2P program.

Can download more than just music files.

The networks that the best downloading programs use also support media other than just music files. These include files such as word and pdf documents, software programs and video files.

Large number of users

As the network of users grows, so does its number of files. Many of the programs tend to share each other's networks so that they get bigger and downloading files becomes faster.

Speedy Downloads

The number of users on the network is important because if there are more users with you file it can download to your computer much faster. The ability of the P2P program to find you users on the network to download from is also very important - some programs are much better at it than others.

Lastly it should be ad and popup free and very accessible. The last thing you want is a program that has a terrible user interface that is impossible to operate. It should be very easy to use and have good cross-platform compatibility. - 16747
