Hi Baz,
There's a lot of spam around as you said!! Try varying your search terms when you look for movies. Try actors' names & even the director's name. Also try the All Types search, rather than just Video. Searching at different times of day can help... as users in other time zones log on & off, new files become available. If you're searching for a really new release, it's likely you'll find mostly spam. Stay away from files that have a huge number of sources (up to 100), go for a file with 10 sources or less.
Always look up a file before download with Bitzi. If the file's been rated, you'll get an idea of content & quality.
