Download Problem
 
Hello! I've downloaded approx 60 songs. However, about 6 of them are still "Awaiting Sources" for about 3 days now. I continually go back and try to resume. It tries to connect, but then goes back to "Awaiting Sources" Should I just give up?

If files sit connecting for ages & then get stuck needing sources forever, you're probably seeing fake files.

If you're searching for music files, use the All Types search & search for artist or album rather than song title. Go for a file with 10 sources or less...stay away from the files with huge numbers of sources.
If you're searching for video files, always chech the file with Bitzi before download. If a file has heaps of sources but no Bitzi rating, chances are it's a fake.

Check out the threads below for more info & tips, including how to use Bitzi.
