You are better off using a free one, than going for a paid version. XDM is quite good.

:D i re-phrase myself :

i would trust a company like tonec inc., a company with an office address...

rather than a sole developer irrespective of what his nationality is :)

http://sourceforge.net/ is a great platform for aspiring / wannabe developers & that is good for them...

but i use nothing from sourceforge or for that matter nothing that is opensource :cool:

which is why i prefer windows over ubuntu & windows phone over android :p

it is just a matter of personal choice & i was stating just that :)

Hi All,

This is the developer of XDM.

I was too a fan of IDM till my trial license expired.
Thought a free application that shares the similar functionality will be helpful to the folks like me who doesn't want to spend money on a download manager.
I would suggest go for IDM if you really want to buy it. Else XDM is there.
As for the bugs of XDM, I am trying my best to make it more robust and functional. For that I need support and feedback from you guys.

Really!. There are several popular application like Chrome, FileZilla, 7 -Zip (even FDM) are open source.

Hi, subhro finally you're here. :)

You should start a thread about Xtreme Download Manager in this forum. Similar to Download Ninja (Official Updates Thread) to gain more visibility.

hence windows 8.1...need i say more :rolleyes: hope you can read between the lines :p



your guess is as good as mine ;)

As subhro mentioned, there are very many open-source applications around, and why would you trust a product more that doesn't provide you with the source codes, than the one that provides you the same. LOL :rolleyes:

If anything that could be sneaky would be the ones that doesn't provide.
