    Alternate ways to watch US shows

    OK so it looks like O2 are having a joke and completely throttling my internet which is making torrenting anything really hard.


    So I'm looking for alternatives that anyone uses.

    Help is appreciated as getting fed up watching my torrents try and download at 5kb/s and the ETA being shown in weeks.

    Newsgroups is probably your best chance of getting them for free. I pay for a RapidShare subscription and use sites such as tehpardox to search for links to the shows I want. It's much faster than torrents, which makes it worth the £7 a month in my view

    I also use an annual rapidshare account which gives me 5gb daily, and will rollover unused to max 25gb. Best money spent as it reduces your risks quite a bit. When downloading from RS you arent sharing, which is where most people run afoul with the law and ISPs. COmbine it with Internet Download Manager, and it is so easy to use, you will never torrent again.

    I mostly use this site to get my movies/tv shows:

    http://linktalk.ihiphop.com/

    In Czech it is not illegal to download, only share.

    Also, downloads between 01:00 and 09:00 GMT are counted at only 10% of your quota, allowing you to download up to 50GB daily.

    I'm interested on the legality of downloading an aired tv show, surely its a bit of a grey area, as nothing stops you these days recording it, watching it on demand and skipping the adverts. I use newsgroups as well for all things totally legal to download.
