Are you talking about throwndown.net?

If it's under Fleetwood Mac and then Documentaries, I don't see the Tusk doc there...?

Am I just blind? lol Thanks for the tip though!

Yes, the link is to throwndown.net (go to Search Torrents, click the search tab and select Fleetwood Mac: Tusk Tour 1979/1980 and then scroll down and you'll see "Fleetwood Mac: Tusk Documentary & Live Concert).

Oh, thank you so much, Matt!

I'm just computer-stupid sometimes (read: most of the time)

Yes! I'd love a copy of this. Send me a private message and we can arrange things. I couldn't get veoh to work, as I've said, and torrents just don't seem to work with me either. I don't know what's going on!

Look forward to hearing from you.

Can someone help me with torrents? I went onto throwndown.net and found the link for the tusk doc. I hen clicked on download and the torrent was downloaded quickly onto my computer. When I opened that it opened limewire and after waiting for 3 minutes for sources it says 'Connecting...' and then nothing happens. This is what always happens with me when using throwndown. I've never been able to get anything from there.

Am I doing something wrong? There's so much stuff on throwndown and I just can't get it! Help!!!

Hi-have you downloaded utorrent or a similar torrent programme? That's the first step. Once you have the software you can download and start the process. The downloaded file will appear but it actually takes quite awhile to download the file. It takes hours or days for a documentary. I've heard that some files can take a week--utorrent shows the progress. I just started using throwndown and utorrent about 2 weeks ago and found my way using the help/faq on throwndown and some steps posted elsewhere on this site (do a search for torrent download). With the first file was trial and error as I had no idea what I was doing, but it didn't take long to figure it out--I've downloading 3 documentaries and an audio show. Brilliant finds.

Ok. I've now downloaded utorrent and it's on my computer. I've then clicked on the download link for the doc on throwndown and when the box came up I clciked save. It instantly downloaded to my computer as a limewire torrent called tusk documentary and when I clicked on that to open it utorrent opened and it's saying downloading from 2 seeds...

all well and good so far except that it says it's downloading at 0kb/s...so not downloading at all! I'm about to give up...

Did you luck improve at all? Perhaps one of the techie experts will weigh in.

I'm afraid not. Oh well, never mind. I'll see it at some point. Somehow!

One more thing to keep in mind. Once you manage to figure it out and get started with torrenting, you need to leave uTorrent (or other torrent client) open on your computer with the torrent uploading (or available to upload), even after you have finished downloading the torrent. If you go ahead and burn a disk and delete the files right away it destroys your "share ratio" (meaning the amount you've uploaded compared to the amount you've downloaded). Many torrent sites are very touchy about it if your share ratio is low. (I had this experience with another site while I was learning the process.) So, once you've succeeded in downloading a torrent, leave it open on your computer until your share ratio is at least 1.

I use a bittorrent site called Tapecity, and it has a good FAQ that explains the process better than some other sites I've seen.
