I've been wondering because I've tried to download episodes from an American TV series -sorry, we are not allowed to give any titles- and my search didn't produce any results except for two, one which was a song with the same title and another that if clicked on took you to the Amazon page advertising the DVD.
So I 'm getting them from e-Donkey but downloading is much slower than with LWpro
Just like the movie I'd been trying to download and (like Pope97) got a huge number of files to choose from with plenty of sources and LW kept saying "need new sources". I got CD1 from e-Donkey within 2 days while many others (part 2 or full movie) are being downloaded.
Being stubborn I went back to LW until I got one out of hundreds of them that could download. Finally it took just a few hours for the complete movie to download from LWpro whereas it took at least two days with e-Donkey to download the first part of that same movie . That's why I'd rather use LW
