sou..?!?! i can't seem to complete any of my vids... probably not many users have arashi clips... ::sObZ::

Arashinokoto, I tried looking for Arashi video files for you...and got so many results. However, most of the files are in Japanese characters. I downloaded a vid file for Arashi (just to test it out)...seems to be working fine...but I deleted it before it could finish because it will disrupt my bro's download bandwidth...and he's currently downloading multiple files. Are you connected to the Asian server? If not, you could try it out. That's where most of the Jpop stuffs are. If you are connected to Asian server, but still couldn't download...it could be that the source (you chose) has a zero-hack, which prevents you to download (the downside.) I guess you'll have to keep looking for another source (another downside) in WinMx...because not all WinMx users are greedy.

I guess some people are not patient enough...so they gave up easily.

BTW, what does "sou" mean? I noticed many people used that word alot...unfortunately, I still don't understand some Japanese words.

hey thanks for that info... i'll try my luck again .. i too got a lot of results.. but seems like that user isn't online after that..

[sou] can be used in many ways.. for example.. when i say [sou..?!?!] or [sou ka..?] it means [is it really like that?]..

but if i use [sou ka(moshirenai)] i mean.. [oh so it's like that or could be like that..].. it's different from the [sou ka?] in front because your way of pronouncing would be different...

however if i use it like [sou da!] i mean [i remember something.. /have to tell you something..etc.]]

other ways of using sou...?? hmmz.. does anyone know..?

Winmx help me get the rare Jpop I ever crave...but still needs effort n time GAMBARE minna

WHERE??

erm.... i mean......

Can you share them?

Pemu wrote:

Whether you hate WinMx or love Direct Connect, that's not my concern. It's all about luck and timing, try to be online at non peak. There should be more users. I have used DC twice, not an ideal P2P for jpop goods in my opinion. Mostly good for warez, hollywood movies and not to mention pron, hehe! Try other P2Ps, see if you like em. Nothing beats the good old ftp with contacts and a jpop channel of irc

Totally agree with Pemu, 100%. Besides, not every p2p programs work out for eveyone.

for japanese stuff on winmx, you won't get anything if u dont type in japanese

however even that doesnt seem to work too well these days...

desperate for alternate sources, anyone got any more to recommend?

hALuCin8, thanks for your support We do have something in common

Anyone getting some "file error" when trying to dl files from other users in winmx? is that the patch to make other users unable to dl stuff from you that has been spoken about?

Pemu is the master in WinMX file downloads. If anyone would know, he would. Too bad he doesn'nt come here as much nowadays. Maybe he's on vaca.

Are you talking about downloading files with Asian (Korean, Japanese, Chinese) file names? If so, you CAN download them. The file error comes from the Asian text. When you do your search and choose which one you want to download, right click and choose "Manually download". Rename the file to something in roman text. I don't know how to get the hash for it though......I'm not fast enough. So without the hash, if you close Winmx, the file won't automatically resume next time. That should do it.
