All good! Thanks for the heads up. Yea, I'll probably try my luck at making a request in the next day or two.

I am curious though, do you find there to be a noticeable difference in content indexed on DS vs DOG? I heard DOG tends to index more P2P content but it's been hard for me to find many comparisons out there.

To be honest I was a little disappointed as ds had been heralded as this locked treasure trove of the best content for ages and when I started to peruse it I found that there wasn't much difference between it and dog.

I struggle slightly less to find books now. however as has always been the case at least for me. Usenet still sucks for music.

The biggest difference I found recently was adding ewaka to my stack made a noticeable difference in completed downloads

I have dog , geek, finder and ds now

Interesting. I kind of felt similarly about DS and finder, that most TV Shows and Movies available on one are available on the other. It has helped to plug some gaps in content, so I'm really happy to be on it, but I too was expecting to be blown away by DS.

But thanks for sharing! Really appreciate the insight.
