Reviewed by: CNET staff on November 06, 2008
Downloading videos, Flash games, and large batches of files is greatly simplified with this freeware download manager, but Firefox users may have difficulty with integration.
Orbit's primary interface is bland, but the basic toolbar and info boxes guarantee everything is easy to find. Orbit shines with Internet Explorer integration. To get a media file, simply right-click a video or photo and choose Download from your context menu. Grabbing a Flash game is even easier. Hover over a Flash file, and Orbit displays a button for a fast download.
Fast and small are key traits of this application. It uses a bare minimum of memory, and downloads are much faster than with a browser alone. Where Orbit shines is its one-button simplicity for downloading multiple files on a site. From there, you can easily filter for file type. Orbit's numerous configuration options make it one of the more flexible download managers available.
Although designed to integrate with the IE, Firefox, Opera and Maxthon, we had great difficulty getting Orbit to work seamlessly with Firefox. We finally gave up trying to get the Flash download feature to work. Nevertheless, anyone downloading large numbers of files will find this freeware indispensable.

"Has limitations, but is a great way to share music"
Pros: Links your friends music and playlists straight into iTunes
Syncs very fast
Using this on your iPod touch is great, it lets you access your entire music library no matter what storage space your iTouch has!
Very easy installation/setupCons: In most cases, you have to do some convincing to sign your friends up
Although the computer program is good, the iPhone application is a good idea but not greatly executed. See the summary for more detailsSummary: Although the limit is 30 friends, that is PLENTY for you to take advantage of this great music sharing program.
