  • AMEN I love TORRENTS!!! Many terabytes and terabytes, LATER.. Every day seems like Christmas morning. For this poor James Bond of Unlimited media FREEDOM!

  • @TechTalker34 The name of the letter is mew, but in engineering, it denotes micro, hence pronouncing it "micro" when saying it in such a context as computing.

  • i use it, but its too slow...hey guys!..which one is better??..utorrent or bittorrent??

  • @Mastervideoize μtorrent and utorrent are basically the same. I've never tried other clients.

  • THUMBS UP FOR NIN

  • Sorry to correct you, but the application is pronounced "micro-torrent" The first character in the name is not a "u", it's the Greek letter that is used in engineering for the metric term "micro."

  • 167 gb holy thats in an insane file!

  • please tell me how do you make your videos 16:9???

  • OMG 167GB

  • @Gamer82296 ur supposed read the comments cuz a lot are legit but some r stupid and act like bitches

  • If you download something, can you get a virus? I heard the more people download, the faster it goes. But can't someone put a virus in theirs so all those people get viruses?

  • Did you say " Pikachu's " at 1:01?

  • I use download helper - Firefox addon to get youtube videos of music then use a different program to rip the audio my brother said it was kinda a gray area didn't know if it was legal or not

  • this is awesome very informing. thnx for this

  • NIN fan huh....Awesome!!!

  • sooo they are giving away their OWN music? Won't they lose money?

  • isn't it illegal

  • @Techipedia, depends on what you do with it.  What I show in my video is not illegal.

  • true.

  • @PCWizKid Nine Inch NAILS KICKS ASS!!!!

  • @Techipedia Shut the F**K up >:(

  • @junyigamers I was asking!!! Okay

  • @Techipedia

    Well it's none of your business so STFU and let him use torrents!!!! D:<

  • @junyigamers calm down i was asking man cause i thought it was!

  • @Techipedia Nothing lah I talking to junyigamers

  • No it's not. As long as you're careful and read the comments and check the amount of seeders, you'll be fine. I use it all the time for songs and $#!t.

  • It's actually pronounced mutorrent.

  • i've always used bitTorrent, far better than utorrent imo

  • Wow this is cool! But, isn't this illegal?

  • it can be...if its not liscensed and your downloading it for free then it is. the program itself though (utorrent, bittorrent, etc.) isnt illegal

  • Like if you're downloading a old version of a TOTALLY free software, but with torrents.

  • if its meant to be free, then it doesnt matter how you download it, torrents are just a faster alternative. for example on the ubuntu website you can download it from the closest point to where you are, or you can download it as a torrent. the closest point takes about an hour, the torrent takes about 3 minutes

  • yup 100% ilegal but since it uses different links its untraceable becouse ppl seed it so they can't trace the original maker so they can't sew us =D

  • what browser was that?

  • @haydentube09 , that was fireforx 3.5 with a black dark theme I added.

  • the nasa night launch theme is very nice. check it out. i have used it for years

  • bitlord

  • Wow I had no idea you liked NIN.

  • what about frostwire

  • Cool. I have that on my computer. Odd thing though. It says the latest version is 1.8.4 on the website but when I update it it only goes to 1.8.3. Typo anyone?

  • Hey thanks man! I love NIN! I wouldn't have found this out if it wasn't for you...

  • Do you like "A Perfect Circle" too?

  • Good news in torrent ia free stuff but the bad news you may be infected

  • u don't get viruses unless your stupid , ive been using thepiratebay to download my torrents and i didn't get a virus yet pft..

  • well you cant just trust it, i scan every single file i get with multiple viruse software

  • I use vuse and it is pretty good for me but i think I may also try utorrent

  • NIN business model is awesome. I don't like their music but they are pioneers for the industry.

  • lmao free but most torrents are illegal

  • I want your theme!

  • torrents give u viruses lmfao all u tards that use torrents are getting hacked everytime i no how its done lmfao use at your own risk

  • mate you even touched a torrent prg?

  • Have you even used a torrent in you life? If someone wanted to get your credit card info, they would already have to have access to you computer by other means. And viruses? That's why you get an antivirus tool. Most torrent sites tell you the contents, so you need to do some serious research before you post. And why are you always saying lmfao?

  • ..HAHAHAHA!You idiot!Have you ever downloaded one!The main reason why people don't like them is because most of this stuff is illegal.

  • if u are afraid of risks, go hide between your mom's tits son.

  • It's free... Don't like the risks don't do it, your loss... And I've never been infected by a virus from a torrent as its not hard to simply view the contents on the torrent website, use trusted uploader's and run a virus scan... Oh, and you sound like a retarded 15 year old...

  • unfortunatly, the first thing i tried to get with a torrent, gave me a big virus.... So now i dont really trust any torrents. How do u know if its safe or not?

  • Then you obviously don't know how torrent websites can help you and how to use antivirus software... Downloaders comments help you and if you don't scan everything you download for viruses, then you deserve to get one. If its been downloaded by thousands of people, has a lot of comments and a lot of seeders / leechers then its most probably ok.

  • obviously i dont.. thats why i asked for help.... and what are seeders/leechers. And whats ur favorite torrent website?

  • Will man, your sooo fucking childish.

  • goob intro sound !!! yeah! 5/5*

  • its not illegal if the band is making THEIR songs free on their website. not ALL torrents are illegal

  • omg you can do anything with torretns games books videos music ect i mosly get games and musci and movies :)

  • My school made me get a macbook, made us pay $1600 for it,, and I DESPISE macs. Also, utorrent is very bad on mac.

  • Sorry Pcwizkid i know this is totally irrelevant to the video but i am stuck. I have found a website which offers a 4850x 2GB graphics card at the same(ish) price as the new powercolor 4890 which stock clock speed is 950mHz and memory 1050mhz (4.2Gps) Simple question. If it were you which one would you buy ? God Bless

  • god bless my ass xD

  • 4850x2? Or 4850 with 2GB?

    I have one 4850 from Sapphire only 512MB and it does me great. Maxes games like Cod4 with 60~120FPS. If you have a good cooler you could overclock the 4850 also (or just auto tune it with Catalyst).

  • torrents are good i have downloaded thousands of movies + software for free

  • Illegal.

  • WHO FUCKIN CARES IF ITS ILLEGAL?

  • The law.

  • LOL

  • but downloading from nin is legal

  • Torrent sites have ratings and comments to help you know if there's viruses etc. To think that all files have virus or some hacking system in them is just stupid, and you should be safe even with free security like avast, you have to bee careful with safety mainly if you are downloading some weird stuff (p0rn).

  • im NIN fan too! :D

  • Im not saying torrents are bad, but I feel alot safer, from viruses and the FBI, with my rapidshare premium account. and I can always get a steady 500kbps, which usually isnt passed by utorrent (But utorrent can get over 1mbps) If your going to download hundreds of dollars of shit, at least pay the $10 a month for an uploading website account.

  • utorrent can download at a speed up to what bandwidth you have available... depending on seeds obviously. why pay when its still illegal yet available for free?

  • The government has an obsession with torrents, mostly because P2P programs are easy as hell to track, and they like to target uploaders, and no matter what, P2P means uploading. The number of people who gets busted for torrents outnumber people who get busted for downloading off hosting websites by at least 100x. And im running a good 1gigabit router with 27mbps download and 4 or 5 upload, and I rarely get past 250kbps on utorrent. However, PeerGuardian + professional blacklists = waay more safe

  • The government only properly target people who upload the torrents onto torrent websites and seed the first copy of the files as they are the people who have originally distributed the files... They simply cannot bust every person that downloads, as that is millions... And if you mask your ip address they cannot even trace your ISP.. I've had and seen upload speeds of up what my bandwidth will hold (18mbps - 2.25mbps) and peer guardian does very little to stop you connecting to bad IPs

  • With good blacklists it will help. And HOW did you get 18mbps speed? Thats amazing...

  • I use peerguardian and found it blocks other programs as well, and seeing as the bad IP's change their address constantly its kinda pointless. 18 megabits translates to 2.25 megabytes. I live on my towns exchange =) lol

  • Oh... Sorry should have read your comment better. Still 2.25 megs is pretty amazing. Ive only seen 1mbps like twice.

  • get a fucking life man pc wizkid does good stuff.

  • To END the myth, you can get a trojan from, say, an mp3, or even a .txt file. And its not hard to setup, most new RATs (Remote administration tools) can bind there server with any kind of file, and it doesnt have to be executed. It just has to be on your computer and they can easily format your hard drive, get credit cards, steal passwords, all that shit. Usually an AV will pick it up, but there are ways past that too, and once the files on your computer, he has a connection and a vulnerability

  • LOLZ. You wont get a virus from utorrent. Just don't search for kiddy pron and animal pron and your good too go.Torrent saved me at least a couple thousand bucks.

  • But I love animal pron and kiddy pron :(

  • alot of people or musician leak or upload thier music in torrent

  • lol I never thought pcwizkid would make this video

  • 167GB? Damn...

  • Yeah, but he only got 1 video so its not all 167 GB

  • but its in hd

  • Yeah, which is amazingly nice for NIN to do so you dont have to pay for their songs.

  • so is this uTorrent better that bitTorrent?

  • Yess

  • Hey PCWizKid, I love all your reviews and tips/tricks video. I was wondering, if you knew how to, if you could post a video on how to port forward using utorrent because I get capped at a slow 30kb/s.

  • he probably should have mentioned that not using official torrents WILL screw up your computer eventually, the program itself is safe, but when it comes to the program IDENTIFYING what ELSE is safe, it's crap.

  • Gotta love breakin da law =)

  • rules are for fools

  • dont do it if u connect p2p anyone can see what ur doin and they can dowload anything from your computer dont do it done do it it will fuck u over trust me

  • Why should I trust some stranger over the internet? I've had plenty of experience with uTorrent, and my experience has been pleasant. PCWizKid has a very nice track record on youtube, so right now I trust him much more than you.

  • lmao lmao who could be and about 93% of them are hackers or that give u viruses when u download stuff or they just look over all ur files and look for ur credit card info and any info on how to steal ur identity ur letting anyone into ur computer and letting them do anything i dont care ill never let another person like u be connected to my shit most of the utorrent shit is illegal and u can be prosecuted u no the goverment is watching all of of us lmfao ahhhhhhhhhhhh

  • i use bitlord but i have used utorrent as well utorrent kills since u dont have to install it

  • LimeWire is good on a Mac. You don't have to worry about viruses.

  • -.- of course you do...it's only a matter of time

  • Let me guess, a virus for the mac?

  • uh ...yes. there's already hundreds out there. the only reason there were less viruses for macs out there before was because almost no one had a mac. they're nothing special, as soon as people started wanting to hack macs, suddenly, macs...? not so safe after all. you know apple recommend you buy anti-virus with your mac, right?

  • nope

  • bitlord is the best

  • Torrents are not illegal. Its in the way they are used is illegal. Example Chainsaw is used for cutting trees not killing people.

  • How do u know if a website has free stuff to download?

  • Great video!

  • this is not new ore something i download for a amazingly long time

    i got 6 terrabytes worth of downloads

  • Holy Sh1t like 5gb each file.

  • i always use torrents for music and sometimes programs, but i never download anti virus programs, or operating systems from torrents i purchase those.

  • WizKid...you just got a lot cooler. NIN rocks!

  • I dont bother becuase its an illegal programs and gets you alot of virus

  • The programs is not illegal and u can download how much u want with torrents, as long u dont dowload any thing that is copywirte protected and the owner is not giving out the torrent and saying it is free. so it is not the program and files that is illegal only the thinks that many people download with them...

  • not true you fail :D

  • i use torrent its cool i downlaod all staf games music utilities so im happy :D

  • i dont use torrents:D

  • For windows, I like to use uTorrent since it's a really small program. Mac/Linux wise, I use Transmission.

  • I use Limewire

  • As long as you download illegally...

  • vuuze

  • yup

  • WARREZ-BB FTW

  • xunlei is better

  • utorrent is the best!

  • "Yar-har fiddle-de-de; being a pirate is alright with me, do what you want 'cause a pirate is free, YOU, ARE, A PIRATE!"

  • I use btjunkie

  • Bitlord is a good bittorrent utilitie too!

  • Yea please put the old music i love it

    this is sux

  • @thivas88, the music I used was to reflect the Nine Inch Nails music I downloaded from the Torrent and is only for this video, If you dont like it dont listen to it :P lol.

  • Intro music fail sorry dude.

  • Great video :)

  • fuck yeah man nine inch nails

  • Lame... Use The Pirate Bay

  • isnt this illegal?

  • downloading nin stuff isnt but copyrighted stuff yes it is

  • new intro music?!?!?!

  • @WorldsEliteDeatHaze, no its not a new intro and the music is just for this video.

  • Isn't it MICRO-Torrent? :)

  • Actually it's mutorrent

  • But unfortunately TPB is gone...

  • it worked for me yesterday :S.

    Also guys remember to use peerguardian while downloading torrents, i think he forgot to say it. Peerguardian blocks your IP (computer address) from malicious organizations.

  • no they're up now, they were temporarily down

  • NOT! :))))

  • not yet.

  • is this legal?

  • its legal to download free stuff

  • cool

  • dude that torrent file has huge inside!!!

  • new opening

  • If you base your torrent downloads on seeders and comments, then do a virus scan when it's finished then your virtually in the clear. Torrent download speeds have ranged significantly for me, from ridiculously fast to ridiculously slow.

  • yeah, the speed most of the time depends on how many other people are downloading at the same time. the more the faster

    ordinary downloading= the more the slower

  • yeh always check for the seeds and forget about the peers... i used to download something with 1500 seeds and 6000 peers, but still a dl speed of 300 kB/s. oo and i dont virus scan... i use TPB and there u have trusted users: i always download from them, never had a virus b4.

  • limewire ftw

  • I guess you love viruses

  • limewire has been improved actually, you can know what to download and what not to download :)

  • guess u never dlded b4...

  • the utorrent software is pretty good. Basically what he said. It's cool though that bands are releasing legally free torrents. This technology does have a lot of potential in a legal sense. It's free advertising after all.

  • torrents has cool stuff but its just gay, slow ass download speed and you get tracked,

    yes Utorrent is the best

  • lol thats  a fail i get 2mbs torrenst are fasstttt- b

  • well i used torrents years ago, and mine was in kbs...lol. if it was in mbs i would use it. i know that its goot to have a larger number of seeders than leachers per torrent, but....

  • its about your internetspeed And the seeders

  • how? i have a 10mbs internet broadband. ive opened up the right ports and stuff but i will never get past 1.2mb/s

  • dude thats because torrets bandwith is from people that's why u need alot of people uploading because your downloading what they are uploading

  • pieces of the file its peer 2 peer so when the first person to upload it stops uploading your relying on them to get it!

  • your lucky I've never got passed 60 kb/s !

    and i was supposed to get 16 MB/s

    thanks BELL!

    thats why i'm switching to COGECO!

  • they both have bandwidth =(, but cogeco is a bit better. But there both a rip off =(

  • You should just upgrade your package from Bell, I get over 500kb/s and I'm at Bell. You probably just have a cheaper package.

  • no we were paying for 16 gb/s but only getting under 1mb/s

  • Ouch, I'd call them. I'm paying for like 8gb/s but whatever. Im not too worried about it, I only download music everynow and then. My gaming is unaffected.

  • we've been calling them for 2 months now and one tech support guy said we can only get 6mb/s we took about 3 online test and get less than 1 mb constantly and now in the first week of the transition a bell rep called us and said she checked we can get 16mb/s and what went through my ming is "THOSE FUCKING LIARS !" i mean honestly!

  • torrent's are oldschool these days, now most of the ppl download stuff from warez-bb (which is a forum where you can find links from rapidshare and stuff) and it's alot more safe also cause V.I.P members there never post any bad stuff or stuff with viruses in them, in torrents almost every other file has a virus

  • bitcomet is the best. the only problem is that mine is out of date... it was the newest one a few months ago.

    you can download american idol LEGALY from the american idol website

  • ahhhhh

    torrents

    games anime blueray

    :)

  • uTorrent ftw

    The Pirate Bay R.I.P.

  • not every torrent is fast it depends on your download speed of the internet and the size of the torrent

  • those files are huge

  • I'm good. I'll settle with Limewire 5.2. I've never had any problems with that nor viruses or spywares. Even with the previous versions of Limewire...

  • the chances are you do have malware if u use limewire
