patchworks Posted May 20, 2005 Posted May 20, 2005 Yesterday i founded this really interesting 3ad on Hydrogenaudio:Essential Software, Software that you shouldn't live withoutThere are tons of applications suggested by users that i never hearded before, and i found that many of them are really interesting.Check it out !...and remember to check my open source software list @ ReactOS wiki
MDGx Posted May 21, 2005 Posted May 21, 2005 SP can't add apps, it is not its purpose, and even if it does, it will grow to a humongous file size, and then dialup/56k users will have to wait forever to d/l it. Not good. But if u wanna brag about apps/tools/tweaks/etc lists, please check out mine [99.99% free(ware)]:http://www.mdgx.com/toy.htmSubsections [different pages]:http://www.mdgx.com/fw.htmhttp://www.mdgx.com/xptoy.htmhttp://www.mdgx.com/speed.htmhttp://www.mdgx.com/dos.htmhttp://www.mdgx.com/w31toy.htm#W31Free soft list:http://www.mdgx.com/free.htmEnjoy.

MDGx Posted May 21, 2005 Posted May 21, 2005 and then dialup/56k users will have to wait forever to d/l it.Err... have you evere heard something sbout Bittorrent ?I have been using torrent clients for over 3 years, and also have a web site full of tweaks + guides [mdgx.com], which proves I'm at least vaguely familiar with computers, but that was not the point.A 56k or slower dialup connection canNOT d/l any faster, *especially* from a network of torrent/emule/p2p "enabled" personal computers, which are anything but fast, as I'm sure you well know.And u need to be lucky to find a few good "seeds" to get a decent transfer rate, depending on the particular file you're looking for.So even on cable [4.8 mbit/sec in my case] bittorrent is not the solution. And even if u get a decent rate, not everyone knows or cares about torrents and/or P2P networks.[99.99% free(ware)]:...looking for open source only, thanks !I'd say roughly 30% of the software listed at my site is free GPL or open source, that's why I spelled it "free(ware)", because I put in 1 word all this: free, free GPL, open source, freeware + similar [donationware, cardware, emailware etc].And from the link u have posted at the top of this topic:http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/?showtopic=5622I see u also like shareware, because there are a lot of "try-b4-u-buy" shareware/commercial apps on that list.I probably have ~ 6 shareware/commercial apps/tools at my site, and those I've personally tested, used and found to be invaluable or the best in their categories.About adding features to SP:you'll have to ask Gape, the creator + maintainer.Hope this helps.
