I downloaded 2.98 and installed it. Ran several searches and tried to download a couple MP3's that should 3-4 duplicate sources. I got the same problem. Could not download, Awaiting sources...

After an hour of not being able to download 1 mp3 file, I went back and reinstalled 2.86 over the 2.98 and bingo, 4 of my selected files started to come in immediately.

I'm no brain surgeon, but something with 2.98 isn't working. At least not here.
