Thanks for the info.

i have some last few questions (hope you don't mind) [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] :
What servers do you usually go to? and which irc channels do you frequently and prefer to download anime series from?
i have just checked out www.anidb.net, and seen many channels posted there. i've observed that channels are classified by fansubs or what i mean is per fansub has their own irc channel. So does that mean i have to download anime series according to their fansub or a channel only have anime titles that they fansubbed? so if that's the case is there a channel that provides assorted anime titles fansubbed by different fansubbers? (so i could just download from one irc channel)

and lastly regarding the speed, how do i know or what do i need to do to know if the person i'm downloading from has slow speed? is there anything i need to type?
