Earthstation 5 ?

[NitnayLion]

Has anyone tried this client out yet. this is the first day I have ever heard of it.

Damn...our 1st ES5 post...by a Lion no doubt. ;)
From what I have read, it is good for streaming & porn...other than that, I haven't heard a thing.

[NitnayLion]

it seams this client has been out for just over a month now. I found this press release http://www.prweb.com/releases/2003/6/prweb67748.php

[NitnayLion]

This client offers encryption and the use of proxies among other features. In light of the crap that the RIAA and MPAA is passing out these days. I think this client deserves a closer look. Unfortionly I am at work now and an limeted as to what I can do for right now. I will give it a go after I get home and tell you what I think. As for now I have found these user opinions on CNET. http://aoluk.com.com/3302-2166_4-10205792.html?pn=1&fb=0

It's crap and slow and ugly and looks like it's been designed and programed by a bunch of script kiddies.

Use Freenet or Waste instead. Earthstation 5 blows.

Ehh...I dont use EarthStation 5 but I do visit their forums from time to time and I must say that the "SharePro" dude over there seems like a cool guy

Just go there..and ask him for a movie..in the next couple days it should be available for streaming

Now that's cool! ;)

ARGH!!!!!!!! Don't mention ES5! That's part of the reason I've decided to leave my beloved ZP!

There was a HELL of a lot of ES5-spamming and fanboying at ZP. It simply got ridiculous, with huge flame wars erupting.

Other than that, their story seems fishy and the client looks like a 4 year-old's dream program.

Nas..you left zeropaid!?

Are you for real man?

Well...I haven't seen you post so I guess you did

*cries*

In the end, ES5 will be the only platform that will exist for most of the world because of the amount of resources being applied. Most of the other P2P companies are not that rich and can't afford to improve their software at the speed ES5 can. It all comes down to who has the most amount of money to invest.



Just so you dont forget :D J/K

Deadly serious. I wish it wasn't true, but it is. I simply can't put up with the hierachy and the stupid questions any longer.

*coughs*

Still think it's fishy. Why is all this £$ being 'wasted' on P2P? Why not invest it?

[Evil_Dweller_01]

They are going to offer companies a 20-30 second commercial before each movie is streamed..

Therefore making big bucks

[nasrules]

Right. Still don't understand why they'd wish to put themselves in a compromising position when there are other ways of making money when there's so much to spare.

Hey..you'd have to ask them

They are also saying they will give free local and international phone calls..except how?

I dunno
