“The program, at first glance, promises a lot”

The program, at first glance, promises a lot. Experieced users, with greater expectations might not be so sanguine. By all means, try it; it might fulfill all the requirements necessary to satisfy your needs

“While the program looks good and would be excellent...”

While the program looks good and would be excellent if it delivered on its promises. Unfortunately this is not the case all it does is downloads from file sharing sites like rapidshare etc, so unless you have premium accounts with these sorts of places you will download at the free download rate, which is nothing near the 25mb/s they claim. By the time you pay for the monthly fee for scrubbu and even a rapidshare account you will have surpassed the cost of an unlimited usenet account

I loved it at first connect. It is easy to use and search for the media that you interested in. You can find almost anything. There is a enormous variety of things you can find. I can not say enough. Join this site, you will not regret it.

This site offers to show movies. What it really does is just run you around it's site, and then steals your money. It does not give a product or service.

This web site is a scam. It will gather your checking or credit card info from other legit sites and then it will create an account and debit your banking accounts. You would not know until you check you statements. Rife with fraud avoid it.

According to the blurb, this software "automatically scans the internet for downloads you want, and reports back with a list of one-click downloads". Hmm. Now I was thinking Google did that for free?

This appears to be a basic search engine and file manager for downloading from file repositories such as Rapidshare, Megaupload and so on. If it does anything over and above what can already be done for free either with Google or by searching existing indexes, I don't immediately see how. Whatever it does do, surely isn't worth $20 a month or even a one-off $20.

I saw nothing on the site that warns you you'll need paid accounts with the file sharing services as well, if you want to download anything at a reasonable speed. There didn't seem to be anything warning you that you'll most likely be downloading illegally stored and copied material, either.

If you're serious about file sharing, then aside from the huge benefits gained by paying for a premium account at one or more of the file repositories, such as Rapidshare or Megaupload or Hotfile for example, everything can be done for free.

If you do it and however you do it, though, you are not going to be downloading movies and games and top-name software legally, let's get that clear. None of these, though widely available, are legally copied or legally stored and it's illegal to download and use or view any of them in all countries which respect copyright.

It is not, however, illegal to sell you a program which provides you with an index of these files, nor is it illegal to sell you a file download manager which makes it easy for you to download them. Neither application in itself is illegal, and both are available for free. People offering to sell you such programs are taking advantage of your lack of knowledge about how to do the same thing for no cost. Yes, it might be a bit more complicated to learn how to do it for yourself, and if they can make it sound complicated they're more likely to get your money. But $20 a month? Do you understand what you'd be getting? And can you be sure you can stop that subscription after the first payment if you choose?

I'd give this a miss, if I were you. I see no value in it. A little online research into file sharing is likely to provide you with all the information you need to decide if it's something you want to do or not, and it's not going to cost you a penny to do so. Try something like "file sharing forum" in Google and see what comes up.

(Thanks to Robert E. For spotting this one first)
