I don't care if you build me or anybody else a pro version or not but if you or the frostwire team need a donation PM me. Or create a STICKY. It would be nice to have a place where we could send a PayPal donation to. I give LimeWire $14.95 twice a year I see no reason not to support FrostWire. I for one think you all deserve our support.

I will have to think about it. We appreciate your moral support though.

NO. I'm categoric, FW will respect LW basic settings, there is NO chance of changing that, except if we want to lure users to save Gnutella "IF" LW starts filtering unlicenced content.

So NO. That's it. Upping IS no good with current technology, plain and simple.

Am I clear ultracross? There is no way I'll jump into that sort of promotion.

That was a joke....

[edit] and DAMN et_voila... you took the bait quickly.. hehe. Just so I can be clear, I seriously doubt I will change the speed settings. et_voila and greg would hate me for it. Although there isn't much harm in changing it. If LimeWire does it for profit, I don't see why we can't do it for free. I can also see the fine line of behaving well and being greedy. Maybe an increase of one host after the modem setting. (This is very hypothetical)

BUT! I will not change anything to increase the number of ultrapeers that frostwire connects to. Three ultrapeers is the max. It would even be nicer to bring the number down to two or even one, but a redundancy is important.

Kmag is working on a simppable patch for the QRT (the QRT simppable settings can be set in increments of 64, 128 and 256k I believe). Kmag tells me that a 256k QRT is the most optimal setting, even though limewire is currently held at 64k--this is the most optimal for limewire. (BearShare proved 256k QRT's are more optimal)... Blah blah, So anyways we will be very safe with 3 UP connections. Connecting to Four or more UPs is just greedy and problematic with higher QRT's.
