Emule is just Emule..
Emule Plus is a mod of Emule that has more features (or so they say)
More people prefer Emule Plus

I dunno...emule has come out with a new version in my opinion i think people like emule a lil better.

IMO neither. there's more queues than winmx, and the speeds are crappier than piolets. and emule lovers don't flame me with the bs you have to know how to use it. cause i configured it and everything, and it still sucked.

Dude.. you have never used Emule (i know that) and you are judging it.. that's what I thought when i first heard about it.. but once you finally realize that all of the best and quality files are on there.. you will use it non stop. It's not for people who can't wait for a download to finish or aren't online for a while.

Indeed, eMule is not a program for those who sit at their computer and stare at the download progress bar until it's finished. I leave eMule Plus running in my system tray for a days, but the files I download on eMule are files that I absolutley couldn't find on any of the speedier networks. In the past, I only used it as a last ditch effort. Lately, I've kept it running non-stop. Because unlike many other networks, your download isn't doomed if one or two people decide to get offline while you're at 50%.

Ok, that's enough rambling from me for now.

what are you talking about? i've tried both emule and emuleplus. you even helped me configure some emuleplus options! and i do have patience, why do you think i leave winmx running all day and just queue all the files i want. come back later in 24 hours and their done.

On winMX you get 2 sources and wait in a huge queue but in 24 hours it has downloaded five bytes and has no sources. with emule you have fifty sources (at least) and in 24 hours you have zero sources because it's done.:mellow

I was using eMule .26b for a while, and I was quite happy with it.
But, I thought about it and decided to try eMulePlus 1b. I like it
as much or better then the regular eMule. I hav'nt had any problems connecting like others have reported, or any other problems with bugs so far. And, unless it's just dumb luck, my
downloads have been faster than they used to be. They have started to download faster, and are reaching good speeds (for
eMule) sooner than usual. I also like the look of the program better than regular eMule. So, IMHO I like eMule Plus better now.

emule plus is very good but the problem with the mods and emule itself is they are not all good. I mean the make so many versions and releases and some just are just buggy.
But I am a emule user almost exclusively. I hated it when I discovered edonkey and I could never get good results.
I will likely go with the new version but have been using emule plus 24b 4Plus lately and I really like it.

One day I found a iso I had to have. I ran it, it went fast and I never turned back. I lucked out and got a file with hundreds of sources that day but it changed my perspective.

You cannot get all the high quality albums anywhere else like you can with emule.

It is the best and if anyone doesn't like it, it just makes me laugh.
plus it keeps the network full of cool smart people who make good rips and high quality releases.
