If you have a slower connection you will see no difference in Pro and Basic DL speeds if you have a fast connection you will see a difference with Pro when DL multiple files I routinely DL at 500 to 600KB/s in other words I can DL a 700MB file in under 1 hour with basic it will usually take about 1 1/2 to 2hrs. But this isn't always true it also depends on the number of host there speed etc.

With Pro you connect to 5 UP when in leaf mode with basic you connect to 3. So with Pro you get better search results this is almost always true. Also with Pro you are allowed to DL from 10 host per file and basic you are allowed 8. Thus more host = more speed.

Any way I hope this helps clear some things up Pro is not crap it depends on what your set-up is.
