Emule
Hi,
I've been using emule as well.
It's quite useful for file sharing but it's a little different from Kazaa.
Unlike Kazaa, emule doesn't seem to write, read or search the "metadata" connected to a file (like the artist and such added to an mp3). Instead, emule only seems to read the name of the file.
So search like asfr only work if someone has labelled their stuff asfr.
Also, for chatting with and checking the directory of other users has never worked. I even tried chatting with noidguy and got nothing.
On the other hand, emule is designed for huge files - I've downloaded gigabytes of stuff off of it. You just have to look by name - one key work can be enough.
I've gotten Mary 25 and Valorie 23. Dr Goldfoot seems to be there as is the bootleg version of The Stepford Wives.

There's also another feature to emule that I think it would be nice to use.
You set a "community string". This gives anyone with that string in their some kind of preference on your machine.
If I set the string "gynoid" and noidguy takes the name
"noidguy [gynoid]" then he would have preference with me.
-- The community string has to be in perentheses, remember.
I'd propose that we set the string gynoid for our community string.

Is there more to it than just changing your name and adding [gynoid]? Also, I think by adding someone as a "friend" you have the capability to see their shared files list. And as for the chat, I have also attempted to chat with Svengli but I guess the timing has never been right. Must be possible, though.

I use emule plus and it seems good. I haven't used regular emule so I couldn't compare.
The emule system seems really futzy. Sometimes I just can't connect with any server and other days things are just smooth. I would advise to keep trying - and test which ports work.
-- And remember to set "gynoid" as your community string on the advanced options dialogue box!!

Community string thing
Yeah, I had trouble finding the "community string" option, too. Apparently plain old eMule doesn't have it but eMule plus does. So now I've got eMule plus and have set up the options as Svengli suggested.

Hi, I just downloaded emule and emule plus. I am behind a router and I tried to do what they said to do in the help files, but it continues to say that it cannot get a connection. Went into my router's connection setting and set it up to allow it to go to emule, still nothing. Anyone know how to get a proxy through there? Thanks

The next step...
Now if everyone using emule and using the "community string" of gynoid,
The next step is to start tagging your stuff with the string "asfr" or "gynoid" and sharing it and list when you've shared and what it's like here.
Thanks a bunch, it would create pretty effective media exchange.

My ISP here in Japan just sent me a very specific
warning to me, personally, about sharing TV show files,
thus I can't download.
I'd gladly pay for these files if there were a system,
but we don't even have iTunes in Japan yet (even though
they're selling iPods like crazy)
Someday this will all be worked out on a reasonable monthly subscription
to download stuff, and we'll all think of this time just as we
think of how crazy Prohibition was back in the 1920's.
But it's almost 2005, and still it ain't happenin' !!!!
I think it's crazy that I can watch most of this stuff for free
on TV (and have done so), or tape it, or at most rent it for a couple bucks.
Guess I'll go back to prowling the video store. Sorry, folks.
But I can still give advice on Japanese ASFR stuff.
