Just about everything I have needed I get from isohunt.com but there are a ton of places out there.

isohunt seems really unorganized

might rock I guess if I was just searching for something specific

mininova was the first one I found. i like how it's organized, but there's not a huge amount of seeding going on

maybe i'm crazy, but shouldn't speeds be fast? i'm rarely seeing many downloads over 20-25k

lots of seeds, lots of peers, no speed

You are likely connecting to seeds that are upload limiting because they are fuckwads. Check your peers list and see who you are talking to. If you have like, 10 people who are 'sharing' at 0.2k each, fuck them! Put them on your ban list and your client won't try to connect to them anymore. uTorrent will only allow so many active connections per task, say, 25 (you can set this), so if 20 of your 25 connections are fuckwad upload-limiters and are sharing at 0.2k (per example), you are going to get shitty download speeds. It's the people that you are getting 10k and beyond from that you want to love... embrace... send HGS to... all of that. Once you have cleared a lot of the 'trash' from each task, you should be able to get your shit quickly. Of course, if there are only 6 seeds TOTAL, there isn't much you can do. That's why you really need to babysit the tasks that have 500 seeds like that... which is usually the TV and movie torrents.
