I have spent literally hours trying to download the Rockline show I missed on the stupid torrent that was listed on this website. Torrents totally suck because they do not seem to work. After 15 hours of downloading nothing happened and I got mad and just deleted the bittornado thing that downloaded it. After downloading the torrent is there something else that needs to be done to listen to what you downloaded???

Please, please, please somebody post a "normal" download of the Buckingham Rockline as I am his most loyal fan and cannot put up with any more of this torrent crap.

Thx in advance to anyone who helps!!!

It could be that your Internet provider Throttle the port on which bit torrent communicates. You need to contact them and ask them, they can be very sneaky.

Have you a Firewall on that is stopping your bittorrent program.

Torrents are really a very simple process of downloading files and should gennerally be fast enough. It took me 4 hours to download the entire show.
Try installing a program called Azureus, its another program used for downloading torrents. give it a go.

It is pretty simple... Two things you need are the client (I use utorrent http://www.utorrent.com/download.php) and then a program to uncompress the file once you've downloaded it. The file you download is a .flac file. The program to install to uncompress can be found here: http://flac.sourceforge.net/

Sorry I may be no help to you, but I do have empathy for you. Torrents are my terror, and I'm sorry to see that most bootlegs are now only available in that format...which means I'm shut out.

I've tried to many times and put too many hours into dealing with torrents. I gave up a few weeks ago. It really sucks big time!

Anyway...send me a private message...I may be able to send you the Rockline show...which I haven't even listened to yet.

Thx to all who replied. I am going to try your suggestions and give the torrent another shot.

I am very appreciative of your help and it shows the overall class of the people on this board.

Thx again and take care!!!
