Use a download manager like IDM.

Using a browser to download is a joke.

All the inbuilt browsers gimp your speeds for downloading and offer extremely limited options.

Download manager for filesharing and general web downloading is much better.

I am downloading with firefox and it cant be any easier.
And usually most of bigger files are on torrent sites so browser downloading is only for small-medium files

If with downloading gets meant "films/games/music and so on" then yea, i don't use browser.

But for everything else.. why not?
Bullshit about not getting max speed, i'm getting around 13-15mb/s quite fine, aslong as the bandwidth on their side allows it.

Anyway, shouldn't this be in software section?

Don't see how this is hardware related...

Depends on the site.
There will be many places you will see a gimped download speed while using the browser.
But if you attempt the same download with IDM or the like you will get it much faster.

I didn't think any of you guys would be using these inbuilt downloaders.

Downloaders are so 2000 when people actually tought that you could download faster but just connecting to the same download 5x

Like i said, with current internet speed people have, such downloader is hardly worth mentioning.

But you prolly have 10mbit internet, yea then you might notice not having 50kb/s extra speed Laughing
Me with 120mbit don't notice if my download goes faster or slower by 1% or even 5%



Oh and FYI, EVERYTHING has impact on performance. No matter how little it is, it does. Period.
So go bullshit elsewere.

Oh so 0.001% impact on performance, that changes everything.
It doesn't matter your connection speed.. you could still end up getting 50kb/sec from a site because of the crappy inbuilt downloader. Rolling Eyes
1 button is plenty for you.
So go complain about people using better software elsewhere.

Plus if a site has 50kb/s speeds only in these days, that website will hardly get used anyway.

How can you say that the software you use is "better", god hard facts to proof your point?

All you have been saying is YOUR opinion, no hard facts.

All you have been saying is YOUR opinion, no hard facts.

It's clear too see with all the features on offer in a manager like IDM why it's a million times better software than any of the inbuilt browsers.
Do you really need it explaining to you?

http://www.internetdownloadmanager.com/
Go read about all the features there if you are interested.

Example would be any site where you want to take content but get crappy download speeds with your inbuilt browser.
Try it yourself then try with IDM and almost guaranteed you will get better results.
You will also have a plethora of more options for downloading scheduling and speed limiting etc etc etc that you just don't have with the kind of basic downloaders that are included in browsers.



I'm actually surprised so many of you guys don't already know about this stuff.
It's essential software for me like winrar etc

I just did a personal test, 13.5Mb/s without 13.9Mb/s with... (this was only from 1 website tho, don't get your hopes up and epeen bigger.)

Difference in total download time for 1Gb was 1 sec.

Yea totally worth having installed Rolling Eyes

Yes the website lies about all the features and when you get the incredibly popular software they are all missing.. lol wut

Accept it or not i don't really care that you don't have a clue.

Go here if you want to complain more about it.

Try file sharing sites. they regularly gives bad speeds on basic downloaders that are improved with a manager.
Also ripping conmtent from most sites. obviously if it's maxing otu your internet connection to begin with you wont see a speed improvment.
I don't know how exactly it works as i'm no programmer. But it works Wink
It's not all about speeds though, as you know the software you should know off the many other features you have available to use that are missing in basic download software.


Can either of you give a good reason why you should choose to use a browsers built in downloader over something like IDM?
The fact that you need to install it and set it up is not a good reason unless you are too stupid to work out how to do so.
In that case i agree something with 1 button is best.

And yes, a website does lie about shit to get their product sold. EVERY company does that within a certain marge.

But yea, we are all derps because we are not having this piece of software that is uber amazing and forged by god his hands. LaughingLaughingLaughingLaughingLaughingLaughing

I did these things 11 years ago, when i was 15... so i guess now we know your age and explains why you are so trying to FORCE us to use a product.

This is not how things work, we still asked you for proof, can't just counter that by saying you show proof why it's not better. That instant shows that you have NOTHING to back your words up.

I pirate it.

You are the ones asking questions about it are you not?
I can assure you all the features advertised on the site are available and working.
Claimed speed boosts are obviously a "up to" kind of basis.
But it does give better results speed wise and all the features advertised are present and working.
Just try it if you are so curious.

I never said you were all derps.
I only indicated you are a derp, and that's nothing to do with what software you are using.
